Thick Disk Kinematics

Thick Disk Kinematics is a stellar kinematic framework that characterizes the distinct rotational and velocity dispersion properties of the Milky Way's thick disk population, differentiating it from the thin disk and halo components through its intermediate metallicity, older stellar age, and elevated vertical velocity dispersion.
