Based on a sample of more than 145000 stars at distances $r<0.5$~kpc, we have found the following kinematic parameters: (U,V,W)_\\odot=(9.12, 20.80, 7.66)\\pm(0.10, 0.10, 0.08) km s^{-1}, \\Omega_0=28.71\\pm0.63 km s^{-1} kpc^{-1}, and \\Omega'_0=-4.28\\pm0.11 km s^{-1} kpc^{-2}. This gives the linear rotation velocity V_0=230\\pm12 km s^{-1} (for the adopted R_0= 8.0\\pm0.4 kpc) and the Oort constants A=17.12\\pm0.45 km s^{-1} kpc^{-1} and B=-11.60\\pm0.77 km s^{-1} kpc^{-1}. The 2D velocity distributions in the UV, UW, and VW planes have been constructed using a local sample, r<0.25 kpc, consisting of \\sim 47000 stars. A difference of the UV velocity distribution from the previously known ones constructed from a smaller amount of data has been revealed. It lies in the fact that our distribution has an extremely enhanced branch near the Wolf 630 peak. A previously unknown peak at (U,V)=(-96,-10) km s^{-1} and a separate new feature in the Wolf 630 stream, with the coordinates of its center being (U,V)=(30,-40) km s^{-1}, have been detected.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-12-26T11:42:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "kinematic analysis", "solar-neighborhood stars", "rave4 data", "2d velocity distributions", "linear rotation velocity" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Astronomy Letters", "year": 2016, "month": "Feb", "volume": 42, "number": 2, "pages": 90 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016AstL...42...90B" } } }
