We present a new method to combine cold gas kinematics with the stellar
kinematics modelled with the Schwarzschild orbit-superposition
technique, and its application to the lenticular galaxy NGC 2974. The
combination of stellar and cold gas kinematics significantly improves
the constraints on the measured dark matter profile: assuming a
generalised NFW halo profile, we find a cuspy inner halo slope for NGC
2974.
