How axi-symmetric is the inner HI disc of the Milky Way?
We modelled the distribution and the kinematics of HI in the inner Milky Way (R < R☉) at latitude b = 0∘ assuming axi-symmetry. We fitted the line profiles of the LAB 21-cm survey using an iterative approach based on the tangent-point method. The resulting model reproduces the H I data remarkabl...
