-
A.
Milky Way bulge and bar
The Milky Way bulge and bar is the dense, elongated central stellar structure of our Galaxy, composed of an old, metal-rich stellar population that dominates its inner gravitational potential and strongly influences its overall dynamics.
-
B.
Bahcall–Soneira model of the Milky Way
The Bahcall–Soneira model of the Milky Way is a pioneering analytic model of our Galaxy’s structure that describes the spatial distribution of stars in its disk and halo, widely used before more detailed modern surveys.
-
C.
Galactic Anticenter Stellar Structure
The Galactic Anticenter Stellar Structure is a vast, ring-like stream of stars encircling the Milky Way’s outer disk, thought to be the remnant of a disrupted dwarf galaxy or a warped extension of the Galactic disk.
-
D.
Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies
The Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies is a catalog compiled by Halton Arp that lists and illustrates unusual and interacting galaxies notable for their peculiar structures and morphologies.
-
E.
The Origin of the Milky Way
The Origin of the Milky Way is a mythological Renaissance painting by Tintoretto depicting the creation of the Milky Way through the spilled milk of the goddess Hera.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
