Simulations of the NGC-5466 tidal stream in a Galactic-like potential, with and without dwarf galaxies included

<p>A mock stream of NGC-5466&nbsp;simulated with the&nbsp;particle-spray code `galpy.df.streamspraydf`, which is an implementation of the Fardal et al 2015 mock stream generation method.&nbsp;The current position and velocity of the progenitor globular&nbsp;cluster is from Vasiliev et al&nbsp;2019. The progenitor&#39;s orbit is&nbsp;back-integrated 5 Gyr in a `galpy.potential.MWPotential2014` potential&nbsp;then&nbsp;forward integrated, forming the tidal tails. The file with&nbsp;the name&nbsp;&#39;dwarfgalaxy&#39; includes the effects of dwarf galaxies&nbsp;on the stream.
