The RMS Survey: Galactic distribution of massive star formation
J. S. Urquhart, C. C. Figura, T. J. T. +6
Abridged: We have used the well-selected sample of ~1750 embedded, young, massive stars identified by the RMS survey to investigate the Galactic distribution of recent massive star…
The Red MSX Source Survey: the Massive Young Stellar Population of our Galaxy
S. L. Lumsden, M. G. Hoare, J. S. Urquhart +5
We present the Red MSX Source (RMS) Survey, the largest statistically selected catalog of young massive protostars and HII regions to date. We outline the construction of the catal…
ATLASGAL --- properties of compact HII regions and their natal clumps
J. S. Urquhart, M. A. Thompson, T. J. T. Moore +13
We present a complete sample of molecular clumps containing compact and ultra-compact (UC) HII regions between \ell=10\degr and 60\degr\ and $|b|<1\degr, identified by combining th…
Characterization of the MALT90 Survey and the Mopra Telescope at 90 GHz
Jonathan B. Foster, Jill M. Rathborne, Patricio Sanhueza +23
We characterize the Millimeter Astronomy Legacy Team 90 GHz (MALT90) Survey and the Mopra telescope at 90 GHz. We combine repeated position-switched observations of the source G300…
Star formation in Galactic spiral arms and the inter-arm regions
D. J. Eden, T. J. T. Moore, L. K. Morgan +2
The line of sight through the Galactic Plane between longitudes l = 37.83 degr and l = 42.50 degr allows for the separation of Galactic Ring Survey molecular clouds into those that…
ATLASGAL --- Environments of 6.7\,GHz methanol masers
J. S. Urquhart, T. J. T. Moore, F. Schuller +7
Using the 870-m APEX Telescope Large Area Survey of the Galaxy (ATLASGAL), we have identified 577 submillimetre continuum sources with masers from the methanol multibeam (MMB) s…
The RMS Survey: Near-IR Spectroscopy of Massive Young Stellar Objects
H. D. B. Cooper, S. L. Lumsden, R. D. Oudmaijer +6
Near-infrared H- and K-band spectra are presented for 247 objects, selected from the Red MSX Source (RMS) survey as potential young stellar objects (YSOs). 195 (~80%) of the target…
