Fig. 14

Phase space projections of the Galaxy disc. The plots show for the AC20-ϖ∕σϖ > 3 sample: (a) median Z
coordinate in the R-
plane; (b) median vertical velocity
in the same projection; (c) dispersion inthe
velocity in the same projection (computed as the 1.5MAD); (d) phase spiral in the 6dsample in EDR3 for stars in the Galactic radial range
|R − R0| < 0.2 kpc; (e) median azimuthal velocity
in the R-
plane; (f) dispersion in
in thesame plane. The bimodality appears in the outer parts of the disc in
panels a–c, with the separation marked with a line of constant angular momentum
.
Panel e:evolution of a slice of the phase spiral (marked in brighter colours in panel d) is seen for smaller radii, while a signature related to the above bimodality is seen beyond
~ 12 kpc in panels e and f.
