ACES VIII: A Survey of Compact, High-Velocity Features Observed in CS(2-1)
Dani R. Lipman, Jakub Poznanski, Savannah R. Gramze +46
The extreme kinematics of the Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) are influenced by processes such as dynamical shearing, cloud collisions, and stellar feedback. These events…
ACES VII. Compact Continuum Source Catalog of the Central Molecular Zone
Jennifer Wallace, Cara Battersby, Nazar Budaiev +58
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) resides in the inner few hundred parsecs of our Galaxy, and despite being the largest reservoir of dense molecular gas in the Milky Way, it has a r…
Electron temperature and emission measure of HII regions in the central molecular zone (CMZ) from H40 αrecombination line and continuum emissions by ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey - ACES -
Yoshiaki Sofue, Steven N. Longmore, Daniel Walker +40
Star formation activity in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) directly manifests itself as radio continuum free-free emission (Bremsstrahlung) and radio recombination line emission f…
Mass Segregation in the CMZoom Survey
Stefania Schuler, Jen Wallace, Cara Battersby +5
We employ a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) approach to characterize the spatial distribution and mass segregation of compact millimeter continuum sources within the Central Molecular…
ALMA Central molecular zone Exploration Survey (ACES) V: CS(2-1), SO(2_3-1_2), CH3CHO(5_1,4-4_1,3), HC3N(11-10), and H40a lines data
Pei-Ying Hsieh, Daniel L. Walker, Adam Ginsburg +59
We present data from the ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey (ACES) Large Program, which provides broad spectral-line and 3 mm continuum coverage of the Central Molecula…
ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey (ACES)-IV. Data of the two intermediate-width spectral windows
Xing Lu, Daniel L. Walker, Adam Ginsburg +61
We release the intermediate-width spectral window data from the ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey (ACES) Large Program, which covers SiO(2-1), SO(2_2-1_1), H13CO+(1-0)…
ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey (ACES) I: Overview
Steven N. Longmore, John Bally, Ashley T. Barnes +95
The mass flows and energy cycles within the inner regions of galaxies exert a powerful influence on the evolution of the galaxy population. The centre of the Milky Way is the only…
ALMA Central molecular zone Exploration Survey (ACES) III: Molecular line data reduction and HNCO and HCO data
Daniel L. Walker, Adam Ginsburg, Ashley T. Barnes +64
The ALMA Central molecular zone Exploration Survey (ACES) large program has observed the inner ~ 200 pc of the Milky Way at 3 mm (Band 3) using ALMA's 12m, 7m, and Total Power arra…
ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey (ACES) II: 3mm continuum images
Adam Ginsburg, Daniel L. Walker, Ashley T. Barnes +69
The ALMA Central Molecular Zone Exploration Survey, ACES, has mapped square arcminutes at 3 mm toward the center of our Galaxy. ACES provides the first large-scale, h…
ALMA Central molecular zone Exploration Survey (ACES) VI: ALMA Large Program Reveals a Highly Filamentary Central Molecular Zone
Cara Battersby, Miriam G. Santa-Maria, Dani Lipman +44
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way is the way station that primarily controls how much gas flows from the disk of the Galaxy towards the central nucleus. While this…
Rotation and stability of the circumnuclear gas disk in the Galactic Center potential by the ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)
Yoshiaki Sofue, Steven N. Longmore, Daniel Walker +26
We investigated the gravitational potential and mass distribution in the Galactic Center by examining the morphology and kinematics of the circumnuclear gaseous disk revealed by th…
ACES: The Magnetic Field in Large Filaments in the Galactic Center
Dylan M. Paré, Zi-Xuan Feng, Yue Hu +33
The Galactic Center (GC) is an extreme region of the Milky Way that is host to a complex set of thermal and non-thermal structures. In particular, the GC contains high-density gas…
Mapping CO Ice in a Star-Forming Filament in the 3 kpc Arm with JWST
Savannah Gramze, Adam Ginsburg, Nazar Budaiev +14
CO gas emission is a fundamental tool for measuring column density, but in cold, dark clouds, much of the CO is locked away in ice. We present JWST results from observations of a s…
Circum-nuclear eccentric gas flow in the Galactic Center revealed by ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)
Yoshiaki Sofue, Tomoharu Oka, Steven N. Longmore +41
We analyze the CS (J=2-1) line cube from the internal data release obtained by the large-scale program "ALMA CMZ Exploration Survey (ACES)" to investigate the kinematic structure o…
