1 How Massive is the Milky Way? See also: Klypin et al. (2002) Simon s talk Matthias Steinmetz Astrophysical Institute Potsdam
2 Overview Spectroscopic Surveys of the MW Geneva-Copenhagen, SDSS, RAVE Mass estimates Using cosmological simulations for data interpretation Do we have consistency between different mass estimates? 2 Kingston, June 15-19,
3 GCS, RAVE and SEGUE are complimentary Kingston, June 15-19, SEGUE selected pointings deep exposures low resolution (R=2000) large wavelength coverage northern hemisphere no repeats Geneva-Copenhagen Survey volume limited, F & G stars 3 repeats for each star stars with Hipparcos parallaxes RVs via correlations RAVE wide angular coverage intermediate depth medium resolution (R=7500) limited wavelength coverage southern hemisphere 10% repeats 3
4 Kingston, June 15-19, The RAVER survey Spectroscopic high latitude survey of the MW 9 < I < spectra for stars GAIA spectral range and resolution Ca triplet region ( Å) R eff =7500 Scheduled operation: dF MOS on UKST at Siding Spring 7 nights per lunation up to 8/ nights per lunation since 8/2005 Goal: 1 Million spectra Typical RV error: 2 km/s 50% of the stars have 3D velocity errors better than 20 km/s 4

15 TF + mass-ang.-momentum-relation In ΛCDM halos, disks contain a larger fraction of the total specific angular momentum than of baryon mass! 15 Kingston, June 15-19, Fraction of baryons transformed into stars Ratio between disk and halo specific angular momenta Navarro & MS 2000

17 The Escape Speed of the Milky-Way Smith, et al 2007 Leonard & Tremaine (1990): near escape velocity: f ( ε ) ε k ε = ( 2 2 v ) e v 17 Kingston, June 15-19,

21 Dark Matter in the Milky Way Kingston, June 15-19, Dark Mass within the Solar Circle Constraint from universal baryon fraction Dark mass constraint from Oort limit Halo Mass (Circular Velocity) Eke, Navarro & Steinmetz
22 Mass of the MW dark matter halo Abadi et al 22 Kingston, June 15-19,
23 Velocity dispersion vs radius Battaglia et al Kingston, June 15-19,
24 Anisotropy of stellar and DM halo Kingston, June 15-19, Dark matter halo and stellar halo exhibit quite different structural properties Abadi et al
25 v v Disk Pro Tully Fisher DM in disks Con Abundance of disk galaxies Abadi et al Kingston, June 15-19,
26 Estimating v vir via satellites MW M31 26 Kingston, June 15-19,
27 What does that mean for the MW as a typical LCDM galaxy? Is there an inconsistency between stellar dynamics, timing arguments and statistics? We need better galaxy formation models Kingston, June 15-19, M M Only ~20% of halos suitable hosts >75% of the baryons in the MW are unaccounted for Disk size: access to the full angular momentum reservoir M M MW would rather untypical or over abundant Local group timing argument 27
