A constant used to derive the rotation speed of the Milky Way from observations of the radial velocity and proper motion of stars near the Solar System. It was introduced by J.H. Oort of the Netherlands in 1927. The radial velocity V(/r) and proper motion μ(/l) of a star near the Sun are expressed as V(/r) = Arsin2l and μ(/l) = B + Acos2l, where r and l are the distance from the Sun and the galactic longitude, respectively, where A and B are called the Oort constants. A-B gives the angular velocity of the Galactic rotation of the Sun, and multiplying this by the distance from the Sun to the center of the Galaxy gives the Galactic rotation speed in the Solar neighborhood.

太陽系近傍の恒星の視線速度および固有運動の観測から,銀河系の回転速度を導き出すための定数。1927年オランダのJ.H.オールトが導入。太陽近傍の星の視線速度V(/r)と固有運動μ(/l)は,太陽からの距離と銀経をそれぞれr,lとするとV(/r)=Arsin2l,μ(/l)=B+Acos2lで表され,AとBをオールト定数という。A−Bが太陽の銀河回転角速度を与え,これに太陽から銀河中心までの距離をかければ太陽近傍における銀河回転速度が得られる。
