Notes. Mass within field of view (16′ × 16′ × 0.92 (point sources and edges)−2π(2.5′)2 (SgrA ∗ ) = 196.252) and mass-weighted average distances for different dark matter profiles of the Milky Way. The (a, b, c, d) refer to corresponding labels inFig. 5. The parameter values are taken from:

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
