Challenge 3

Simulated observations and biases

PI: Antonio Sollima
Co-I: Alice Zocchi
Other active participants: Mark Gieles, Vincent Henault-Brunet, …

Questions to address:

How different are the fits when considering: 1) all stars and 2) only visible stars?
Is it better to consider luminosity weighted profiles, or number density profiles?
How much can we do with 2 velocity components instead of 1 (i.e. with Gaia data)?

Snapshots from Sections C and D of the Mock data page can be used for this challenge.
