Axial Symmetry Tests of Milky Way Disk Stars Probe the Galaxy’s Matter Distribution (Austin Hinkel, University of Kentucky Dissertation)

A repository for the data and code used in my thesis at the University of Kentucky (2021). The data file itself is a subset of Gaia data (data release 2, or "DR2"), obtained from the Gaia Space Telescope, which can be queried via the freely available Gaia archive. The code is written in C++, Python, C, and root. Documentation can be found in "README" files, within the code itself, and in this repository's text.
