Caption: Figure 6.

Rotation curves of some of the axisymmetric potentials included in galpy. All rotation curves are in natural units where the circular velocity vc = 1 at R = 1. Unless otherwise indicated, each potential's scale parameter is set to one. This figure was made by calling each Potential instance's plotRotcurve method.
