Pre-Gaia analyses of the inner Milky Way rotation curve had established robust evidence for a non-baryonic dark component already at R ≲ R0.
“PreGaia analyses of the inner MW rotation curve had nonetheless established robust evidence for a non-baryonic dark component already at R ≲ R 0 (Iocco et al., 2015), complementing the kinematic and dynamical constraints on the outer halo.”

Currently, the stellar disc mass of the Galaxy is poorly constrained and thus cannot be used to distinguish between the two models, although most measurements agree better with the lower stellar mass of the contracted NFW halo model.
“Currently, the stellar disc mass of our galaxy is poorly constrained (e.g. see the compilation of stellar profiles in Iocco et al. 2015) and thus cannot be used to distinguish between the two models, although most measurements agree better with the lower stellar mass of the contracted NFW halo model”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
