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…

Molecular outflows around high-mass young stellar objects

Y. Xu, Z. -Q. Shen, J. Yang +7

We present a study of molecular outflows using high-resolution mapping of the CO (1-0) line emission toward eight relatively nearby 6.7 GHz methanol masers, which are associated wi…

The Distance to the Perseus Spiral Arm in the Milky Way

Y. Xu, M. J. Reid, X. W. Zheng +1

We have measured the distance to the massive star-forming region W3OH in the Perseus spiral arm of the Milky Way to be 1.95 0.04 kilo-parsecs ( km). This d…
