Abstract
We consider kinematic inhomogeneities (stellar groups) in the corona of the Ursa Major flow. We show that the orientation of the major axis of the error ellipse for each star is defined by its position relative to its own apex. We apply the AD-diagram method suggested by us earlier; a statistical analysis confirms the existence of stellar groups in the corona of the Ursa Major flow.
