The Expanding 3 kpc Arms Are Neither Expanding nor Spiral Arms but X1 Orbits Driven by the Galactic Bar
Jayender Kumar, Mark J. Reid, T. M. Dame +6
Near the center of our Milky Way is a bar-like structure and the so-called Expanding 3-kpc arms. We currently have limited knowledge of this important region, since we are about 8.…
Roman Early-Definition Astrophysics Survey Opportunity: Galactic Roman Infrared Plane Survey (GRIPS)
Roberta Paladini, Catherine Zucker, Robert Benjamin +67
A wide-field near-infrared survey of the Galactic disk and bulge/bar(s) is supported by a large representation of the community of Galactic astronomers. The combination of sensitiv…
A Complete HCN Survey of the Perseus Molecular Cloud
T. M. Dame, Charles J. Lada
We present a survey of the Perseus molecular cloud in the J 10 transition of HCN, a widely used tracer of dense molecular gas. The survey was conducted with the Cf…
The role of neutral hydrogen in setting the abundances of molecular species in the Milky Way's diffuse interstellar medium. II. Comparison between observations and theoretical models
Daniel R. Rybarczyk, Munan Gong, Snezana Stanimirovic +6
We compare observations of HI from the Very Large Array (VLA) and the Arecibo Observatory and observations of HCO from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) a…
The role of neutral hydrogen in setting the abundances of molecular species in the Milky Way's diffuse interstellar medium. I. Observational constraints from ALMA and NOEMA
Daniel R. Rybarczyk, Snezana Stanimirovic, Munan Gong +7
We have complemented existing observations of HI absorption with new observations of HCO, CH, HCN, and HNC absorption from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array…
Trigonometric Parallaxes of Four Star-forming Regions in the Distant Inner Galaxy
Y. Xu, S. B. Bian, M. J. Reid +9
We have measured trigonometric parallaxes for four water masers associated with distant massive young stars in the inner regions of the Galaxy using the VLBA as part of the BeSSeL…
