Galactic rotation constant - ginga kaiten teisou

…A constant introduced by Dutch astronomer J. H. Oort in 1927 to derive the rotation of the Milky Way from observations of the radial velocity and proper motion of stars near the Sun. The Milky Way, a large group of stars including the Sun, maintains equilibrium by rotating around its center of gravity. Stars and interstellar gas in the Galactic plane move in a nearly circular motion around the center of the galaxy, and when the radial velocity V r and proper motion μ l of stars near the Sun that move in this way are observed, they change as follows depending on the star's distance from the Sun r and its galactic longitude l : …
