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.

本数据集汇集了我在肯塔基大学（2021年）撰写学位论文所使用的数据与代码。数据文件本身为盖亚望远镜（Gaia Space Telescope）提供的盖亚数据（数据发布2版，简称“DR2”）的子集，该数据可通过免费提供的盖亚档案进行查询。代码以C++、Python、C和root语言编写。相关文档可于代码内部的“README”文件中，以及本存储库的文本文件中查寻。
