Best-fit value of the exponent 2/n vs. radius when our results for the stellar density distribution for the Milky Way are fit by a distribution of type sech2/n at each radius, for |Δz| < 150 pc. For radii > 14 kpc, a new regime of n < 1 is obtained. This corresponds to radii where the main constraining effect is due to the dark matter halo.
