A natural coordinate system for the study of dynamical systems is the angle-action coordinate system. New methods for the approximation of the action-angle variables in general potentials are presented and discussed. These new tools are applied to the construction of dynamical models for two of the Galaxy?s components: tidal streams and the Galactic disc. Tidal streams are remnants of tidally stripped satellites in the Milky Way that experience the effects of the large scale structure of the Galactic gravitational potential, while the Galactic disc provides insights into the nature of the Galaxy near the Sun. Appropriate action-based models are presented and discussed for these components, and extended to include further information such as the metallicity of stars. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSpace sciences 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aStatistical physics 606 $aDynamics 606 $aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030 606 $aTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19005 606 $aComplex Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000 606 $aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19090 615 0$aSpace sciences. 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 0$aStatistical physics. 615 0$aDynamics. 615 14$aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics). 615 24$aTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics. 615 24$aComplex Systems. 615 24$aStatistical Physics and Dynamical Systems. 676 $a523.113 700 $aSanders$b Jason$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0323318 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300408103321 996 $aDynamics of the Milky Way$91771540 997 $aUNINA
