The parallax and 3D kinematics of water masers in the massive star-forming region G034.43+0.24

Xiaofeng Mai, Bo Zhang, M. J. Reid +12

We report a trigonometric parallax measurement of 22 GHz water masers in the massive star-forming region G034.43+0.24 as part of the Bar and Spiral Structure Legacy (BeSSeL) Survey…

A Milliarcsecond-accurate Position for Sagittarius A*

Shuangjing Xu, Bo Zhang, Mark J. Reid +3

The absolute position of Sgr A*, the compact radio source at the center of the Milky Way, had been uncertain by several tens of milliarcseconds. Here we report improved astrometric…
