Rotation curve of the simulated MW at the simulation start (0.0 Gyr) and at the current time (7.4 Gyr). The model was initiallytruncated at 20 kpc, but the particles spread outward as the galaxies developed bars and interacted, such that the rotation could be traced to larger distances at the later times.
