Gaia Data Release 2: Mapping the Milky Way disc kinematics

Gaia Collaboration, D. Katz, T. Antoja +12

To illustrate the potential of GDR2, we provide a first look at the kinematics of the Milky Way disc, within a radius of several kiloparsecs around the Sun. We benefit for the firs…

Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS). III. Zooming into the methanol peak of the pre-stellar core L1544

Anna Punanova, Paola Caselli, Siyi Feng +41

Towards the pre-stellar core L1544, the methanol (CHOH) emission forms an asymmetric ring around the core centre, where CHOH is mostly in solid form, with a clear peak 4000…
