1302.6982 (P. J. E. Peebles et al.)

The Variety of Solutions for Dynamics in the Local Group    [PDF]

P. J. E. Peebles, R. Brent Tully
This exploration of solutions for the orbits of Local Group galaxies under the cosmological initial condition of growing peculiar velocities and fitted to measured distances, redshifts, and proper motions reveals a considerable variety of histories allowed by present constraints. The solutions also point to computations and measurements at the current level of precision that may lead to a more accurate picture of Local Group dynamics, or perhaps point to adjustments of our simple picture of the arrangement of mass within the Local Group.
