Abstract
We use two models for the distribution function to solve an inverse pr oblem for axisymmetric disks. These systems may be considered - under certain assumptions - as galactic disks. In some cases the solutions o f the resulting integral equations are simple, which allows the determ ination of the kinematic properties of self-consistent models for thes e systems. These properties for the n = 1 Toomre disk are presented in this study.
