Trigonometric Parallaxes Of High-Mass Star Forming Regions: Our View Of The Milky Way
M. J. Reid, K. M. Menten, A. Brunthaler +15
We compile and analyze ~200 trigonometric parallaxes and proper motions of molecular masers associated with very young high-mass stars. These measurements strongly suggest that the…
Techniques for Accurate Parallax Measurements for 6.7-GHz Methanol Masers
M. J. Reid, A. Brunthaler, K. M. Menten +13
The BeSSeL Survey is mapping the spiral structure of the Milky Way by measuring trigonometric parallaxes of hundreds of maser sources associated with high-mass star formation. Whil…
The Distance and Size of the Red Hypergiant NML Cyg from VLBA and VLA Astrometry
B. Zhang, M. J. Reid, K. M. Menten +2
We have measured the annual parallax and proper motion of NML Cyg from multiple epoch VLBA observations of the circulstellar H2O and SiO masers. The measured parallax of NML Cyg is…
Trigonometric Parallaxes of Massive Star Forming Regions: VI. Galactic Structure, Fundamental Parameters and Non-Circular Motions
M. J. Reid, K. M. Menten, X. W. Zheng +11
We are using the VLBA and the Japanese VERA project to measure trigonometric parallaxes and proper motions of masers found in high-mass star-forming regions across the Milky Way. E…
Trigonometric Parallaxes of Massive Star Forming Regions: V. G23.01-0.41 and G23.44-0.18
A. Brunthaler, M. J. Reid, K. M. Menten +3
We report trigonometric parallaxes for the massive star-forming regions G23.01-0.41 and G23.44-0.18, corresponding to distances of 4.59 [+0.38/-0.33] kpc and 5.88 [+1.37/-0.93] kpc…
Search for Compact Extragalactic Radio Sources Near Massive Star Forming Regions
Y. Xu, M. J. Reid, K. M. Menten +1
We have used the Very Large Array to search for compact milliarcsecond-size radio sources near methanol masers in high-mass star-forming regions. Such sources are required for Very…
