Radial properties of MWPotential2014. The top panel shows the radial profile of the vertical force at 1.1 kpc above the mid-plane and compares it to the measurements of Bovy & Rix (2013; black points) and of Zhang et al. (2013; gray diamond). The bottom panel displays the terminal-velocity curve of MWPotential2014 and compares it to the data from Clemens (1985) and McClure-Griffiths & Dickey (2007).
