Locations of the stars in our high-velocity sample in the R-z-plane (left panel) and the x-y-plane (right panel) as defined in Fig. 7. Blue and orange symbols represent RAVE stars and B00 stars, respectively. The error bars show 68% confidence regions (~1σ). Gray contours show the full RAVE catalog, and the position of the Sun is marked by a white “⊙”. The dashed lines in both panels mark locations of constant Galactocentric radius .
