ALMA observations of massive clouds in the central molecular zone: slim filaments tracing parsec-scale shocks
Kai Yang, Xing Lu, Yichen Zhang +22
The central molecular zone (CMZ) of our Galaxy exhibits widespread emission from SiO and various complex organic molecules (COMs), yet the exact origin of such emission is uncertai…
ALMA Observations of Massive Clouds in the Central Molecular Zone: External-Pressure-Confined Dense Cores and Salpeter-like Core Mass Functions
Zhenying Zhang, Xing Lu, Tie Liu +25
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Band 6 (1.3 mm) observations of dense cores in three massive molecular clouds within the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ)…
3-D CMZ II: Hierarchical Structure Analysis of the Central Molecular Zone
Cara Battersby, Daniel L. Walker, Ashley Barnes +16
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is the way station at the heart of our Milky Way Galaxy, connecting gas flowing in from Galactic scales with the central nucleus. Key open question…
3-D CMZ III: Constraining the 3-D structure of the Central Molecular Zone via molecular line emission and absorption
Daniel L. Walker, Cara Battersby, Dani Lipman +15
The Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is the largest concentration of dense molecular gas in the Galaxy, the structure of which is shaped by the complex interplay between Ga…
3-D CMZ I: Central Molecular Zone Overview
Cara Battersby, Daniel L. Walker, Ashley Barnes +16
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is the largest reservoir of dense molecular gas in the Galaxy and is heavily obscured in the optical and near-IR. We present an overview of the far…
SOFIA/FORCAST Galactic Center Source Catalog
Angela S. Cotera, Matthew J. Hankins, John Bally +12
The central regions of the Milky Way constitute a unique laboratory for a wide swath of astrophysical studies, consequently the inner 400 pc has been the target of numerous l…
