Javier Ballesteros-Paredes, Gilberto C. Gómez, Bárbara Pichardo +1
(Abridged) The gravitational term for clouds and cores entering in the virial theorem is usually assumed to be equal to the gravitational energy, since the contribution to the grav…
Errors in kinematic distances and our image of the Milky Way Galaxy
Gilberto C. Gomez
Errors in the kinematic distances, under the assumption of circular gas orbits, were estimated by performing synthetic observations of a model disk galaxy. It was found that the er…
