Investigating the origin of the Milky Way streams - A revised look at their orbital pole distribution in light of precession effects

Open Access

Fig. D.2.

Figure showing the orbital pole distribution of the particles and gas cells in Fig. 2 after being back-traced for 6.6 Gyr using the precession rate formula (Eq.2). Note that the fraction of elements within the VPOS region increases significantly after being corrected for the effect of precession (see Fig. 2 for comparison).
