The sixteen solar vicinity volumes chosen for the analysis performed in Sects. 3.1.3 and 3.2. Each spherical volume has a radius of 3 kpc. Volumes are located at 8 kpc and 12 kpc from the galaxy center and are homogeneously distributed in azimuth. The grey map in foreground is simply used to indicate the location of the volumes, for one of the simulations analyzed in this paper.
