The Milky Way Rotation Curve and its Vertical Derivatives Inside the Solar Circle
E. S. Levine, Carl Heiles, Leo Blitz
We measure the Galactic rotation curve and its first two vertical derivatives in the first and fourth quadrants of the Milky Way using the 21 cm VGPS and SGPS. We find tangent velo…
The Dense Gas in the Central Kiloparsec of NGC 6946
E. S. Levine, Tamara T. Helfer, R. Meijerink +1
We present observations of the HCN and HCO+ J=1-0 transitions in the center of the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 6946 made with the BIMA and CARMA interferometers. Using the BIMA SONG C…
The Warp and Spiral Arms of the Milky Way
E. S. Levine, Leo Blitz, Carl Heiles +1
We examine the outer Galactic HI disk for deviations from the b=0 plane by constructing maps of disk surface density, mean height, and thickness. We find that the Galactic warp is…
The Spiral Structure of the Outer Milky Way in Hydrogen
E. S. Levine, Leo Blitz, Carl Heiles
We produce a detailed map of the perturbed surface density of neutral hydrogen in the outer Milky Way disk demonstrating that the Galaxy is a non-axisymmetric multi-armed spiral. S…
The Vertical Structure of the Outer Milky Way HI Disk
E. S. Levine, Leo Blitz, Carl Heiles
We examine the outer Galactic HI disk for deviations from the b=0 plane by constructing maps of disk surface density, mean height, and thickness. We find that the Galactic warp is…
Future Galaxy Cluster Surveys: The Effect of Theory Uncertainty on Constraining Cosmological Parameters
E. S. Levine, A. E. Schulz, Martin White
Using the Fisher matrix formalism, we quantitatively investigate the constraints on a 10 dimensional space of cosmological parameters which may be obtained with future cluster surv…
