摘要
The aim of this work is to show, in the framework of a simple finite-width disk model, that the amount of mass seen through gravitational microlensing measurements in the region 0 < R < R-o is consistent with the dynamical mass ascertained from Galaxy rotation after subtracting gas contribution. Since microlensing only detects compact objects, this result suggests that a non-baryonic mass component may be negligible in this region.
