First Trigonometric Parallax Measurements with the KVN and VERA Array (KaVA)

Nobuyuki Sakai, Daisuke Sakai, Noriyuki Kawaguchi +26

To demonstrate the astrometric capability of the combined Korean VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) Network (KVN) and VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA) Array (KaVA)…

East Asian VLBI Network astrometry toward the star-forming region G040.96+02.48 in the Extreme Outer Galaxy

Xianjin Shen, Zehao Lin, Nobuyuki Sakai +18

Accurate astrometric measurements for star-forming regions located on the far side of the Milky Way remain scarce. In this work, we present the astrometric results for a 22\,GHz wa…

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…

EAVN Astrometry toward the Extreme Outer Galaxy: Kinematic distance with the proper motion of G034.84-00.95

Nobuyuki Sakai, Bo Zhang, Shuangjing Xu +22

We aim to reveal the structure and kinematics of the Outer-Scutum-Centaurus (OSC) arm located on the far side of the Milky Way through very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) astr…

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…

A VLBA Trigonometric Parallax for RR Aql and the Mira PL Relation

Yan Sun, Bo Zhang, Mark J. Reid +4

We report VLBA observations of 22 GHz HO and 43 GHz SiO masers toward the Mira variable RR Aql. By fitting the SiO maser emission to a circular ring, we estimate the absolute…
