Characterizing the velocity anisotropy of the Milky Way's stellar halo
A large sample of blue horizontal-branch stars reveals that the Milky Way halo anisotropy increases from the center, stays radially dominated after removing merger debris, and shows older stars on colder, less radial orbits in the inner regions.
