A self-consistent model of Galactic stellar and dust infrared emission and the abundance of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

Thomas P. Robitaille, Ed Churchwell, Robert A. Benjamin +4

We present a self-consistent three-dimensional Monte-Carlo radiative transfer model of the stellar and dust emission in the Milky-Way, and have computed synthetic observations of t…

Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies -- an EVLA Survey (CHANG-ES) -- II: First Results on NGC 4631

Judith Irwin, Rainer Beck, R. A. Benjamin +19

We present the first results from the CHANG-ES survey, a new survey of 35 edge-on galaxies to search for both in-disk as well as extra-planar radio continuum emission. The motivati…

Continuum Halos in Nearby Galaxies -- an EVLA Survey (CHANG-ES) -- I: Introduction to the Survey

Judith Irwin, Rainer Beck, R. A. Benjamin +19

We introduce a new survey to map the radio continuum halos of a sample of 35 edge-on spiral galaxies at 1.5 GHz and 6 GHz in all polarization products. The survey is exploiting the…

Distances to Dark Clouds: Comparing Extinction Distances to Maser Parallax Distances

Jonathan B. Foster, Joseph J. Stead, Robert A. Benjamin +2

We test two different methods of using near-infrared extinction to estimate distances to dark clouds in the first quadrant of the Galaxy using large near infrared (2MASS and UKIDSS…

Multi-wavelength Observations of the Radio Magnetar PSR J1622-4950 and Discovery of its Possibly Associated Supernova Remnant

Gemma E. Anderson, B. M. Gaensler, Patrick O. Slane +29

We present multi-wavelength observations of the radio magnetar PSR J1622-4950 and its environment. Observations of PSR J1622-4950 with Chandra (in 2007 and 2009) and XMM (in 2011)…

Vertical structure of a supernova-driven turbulent magnetized ISM

Alex S. Hill, M. Ryan Joung, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +4

Stellar feedback drives the circulation of matter from the disk to the halo of galaxies. We perform three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations of a vertical column of the in…
