Abstract
Using the VLA at 1612 MHz Lindqvist et al. (1992a) have found 134 OH/IR stars close to the Galactic Centre (GC). These stars plus 15 from Habing et al. (1983) have been used as probes of the gravitational. potential. to derive the mass distribution in the inner galactic bulge between ≈ 5 to ≈ 100 pc from the GC (Lindqvist et al., 1992b). In this paper we present a progress report of a dynamical. model which we have applied to the data.
