Galactic Dynamical Models

Galactic Dynamical Models is a theoretical framework that describes the motion and distribution of stars and gas in galaxies under the influence of gravity, distinguished by its application of statistical and analytical methods to infer the underlying mass distribution and kinematic structure of galactic systems.
