An 84 microGauss Magnetic Field in a Galaxy at Redshift z=0.692
Arthur M. Wolfe, Regina A. Jorgenson, Timothy Robishaw +2
The magnetic field pervading our Galaxy is a crucial constituent of the interstellar medium: it mediates the dynamics of interstellar clouds, the energy density of cosmic rays, and…
Mapping Hydrogen in the Galaxy, Galactic Halo, and Local Group with ALFA: The GALFA-HI Survey Starting with TOGS
S. J. Gibson, K. A. Douglas, C. Heiles +4
Radio observations of gas in the Milky Way and Local Group are vital for understanding how galaxies function as systems. The unique sensitivity of Arecibo's 305m dish, coupled with…
Properties of the thinnest cold HI clouds in the diffuse interstellar medium
Snezana Stanimirovic, Carl Heiles, Nissim Kanekar
We have obtained deep HI observations in the direction of 22 continuum sources without previously detected cold neutral medium (CNM). 18 CNM clouds were detected with the typical H…
The Warp and Spiral Arms of the Milky Way
E. S. Levine, Leo Blitz, Carl Heiles +1
We examine the outer Galactic HI disk for deviations from the b=0 plane by constructing maps of disk surface density, mean height, and thickness. We find that the Galactic warp is…
First results from the Arecibo Galactic HI Survey: the disk/halo interface region in the outer Galaxy
Snezana Stanimirovic, Mary Putman, Carl Heiles +11
The consortium for Galactic studies with the Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA) is conducting a neutral hydrogen (HI) survey of the whole Arecibo sky (declination range from -1 to 38…
