X-Stream generates thousands of stream realizations in trial potentials and applies nested sampling to constrain the full radial density profile of dark matter halos from imaging data.
The PFS Galactic Archaeology survey will observe thousands of stars in Local Group systems to measure density profiles in dwarfs and compare assembly histories of M31 and the Milky Way.
