Face-on (bottom) and side-on (top) stellar density distribution of the models. Left to right, the axisymmetric NSD, isolated strong NSB, isolated weak NSB, and large-scale bar. The large-scale bar model is oriented at −27° relative to the Solar-GC line (dotted line). The nuclear bar angle, α, is a free parameter. In all cases, the Solar position is (x, y, z) = (−8.2, 0, 0.012) kpc.
