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…

Distinct Gas and Stellar Circular Rotation Curves in the Milky Way Galaxy

Alistair H. Nelson, Yoshiaki Sofue, Peter R. Williams

The rotational velocity of interstellar gas in the Milky Way, and other galaxies, has been taken to represent the circular velocity of a test particle in the Galaxy gravitational f…

Simulations of gas inflow in the Milky Way I. Stellar-Feedback-Regulated Transport from the Central Molecular Zone to the Circumnuclear disk

Zi-Xuan Feng, Mattia C. Sormani, Robin G. Tress +18

We perform hydrodynamical simulations with radially varying resolution to study the effects of stellar feedback on the radial inflow of gas from the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ, $R…

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) 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…

MHD lensing in inhomogeneous ISM for qualitative understanding of the morphology of supernova remnants

Yoshiaki Sofue

Morphological evolution of expanding shells of fast-mode magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves through an inhomogeneous ISM is investigated in order to qualitatively understand the compl…

Face-on Map of the Molecular Disc and 3-kpc Expanding Ring of the Galaxy based on a High-Accuracy Rotation Curve

Yoshiaki Sofue

We analyze the longitude-velocity diagram (LVD) of the CO-line emission from archival data and use the most accurate rotation curve (RC) of the Milky Way to transform radial veloci…

Unified Rotation Curve of the Galaxy -- Decomposition into de Vaucouleurs Bulge, Disk, Dark Halo, and the 9-kpc Rotation Dip --

Y. Sofue, M. Honma, T. Omodaka

We present a unified rotation curve of the Galaxy re-constructed from the existing data by re-calculating the distances and velocities for a set of galactic constants R_0=8 kpc and…

Hubble Constant at Intermediate Redshift using the CO-Line Tully-Fisher Relation

Y. Tutui, Y. Sofue, M. Honma +2

We have determined distances and Hubble ratios for galaxies at intermediate redshifts, cz=about 10,000 to 35,000 km/s, by applying the CO-line Tully-Fisher relation to our 12CO (J=…
