Density plot of approximately ∼5000 MSTO field stars with metallicity [Fe/H] > −0.5. The plot shows the Galactic coordinate system projected onto the XY plane. Lines of constant Galactic longitude () and latitude (b) are drawn at regular intervals, while concentric circles represent increasing Galactocentric distances (R). The four Galactic quadrants are also indicated, providing a reference for the spatial distribution of structures within the Milky Way. The colour bar shows the stellar density in physical units of numbers of stars per square parsec (stars/pc2).
