Abstract

Assuming our Galaxy to be roughly prototypical of other galaxies, it offers us a unique opportunity to make depth studies of Galactic structure. Unlike any other galaxy, it allows us to study the full kinematics of its stars. In this second part, we focus on the integration of kinematics over time, i.e. orbits.
