Bayesian Mass Estimates of the Milky Way: Including Measurement Uncertainties with Hierarchical Bayes

Sensitivity analysis: the estimate of the total mass within 125 kpc (M₁₂₅) for different GC samples. GCs within the r_cut value are removed from the sample (for example, M₁₂₅ at ﹩{r}_{\mathrm{cut}}=10﹩ corresponds to the mass estimate when GCs within 10 kpc are removed from the sample). Inner bars are 50% credible regions, and outer bars are 95% credible regions.
