Flat rotation curves of spiral galaxies are considered as an evidence for dark matter, but the rotation curve of the Milky Way is difficult to measure. Various objects were used to track the rotation curve in the outer parts of the Galaxy,…

I present three methods to determine the distance to the Galactic centre R0, the solar azimuthal velocity in the Galactic rest frame Vg,\odot and hence the local circular speed Vc at R0. These simple, model-independent strategies reduce the…
We consider young distant stars from the Gaia TGAS catalog. These are 250 classical Cepheids and 244 OB stars located at distances up to 4 kpc from the Sun. These stars are used to determine the Galactic rotation parameters using both…
