The Radio Ammonia Mid-Plane Survey (RAMPS) Pilot Survey

Taylor Hogge, James Jackson, Ian Stephens +11

The Radio Ammonia Mid-Plane Survey (RAMPS) is a molecular line survey that aims to map a portion of the Galactic midplane in the first quadrant of the Galaxy (l = 10 deg - 40 deg,…

IN-SYNC VI. Identification and Radial Velocity Extraction for 100+ Double-Lined Spectroscopic Binaries in the APOGEE/IN-SYNC Fields

M. A. Fernandez, Kevin R. Covey, Nathan De Lee +15

We present radial velocity measurements for 70 high confidence, and 34 potential binary systems in fields containing the Perseus Molecular Cloud, Pleiades, NGC 2264, and the Orion…

IN-SYNC. V. Stellar kinematics and dynamics in the Orion A Molecular Cloud

Nicola Da Rio, Jonathan C. Tan, Kevin R. Covey +14

The kinematics and dynamics of young stellar populations enable us to test theories of star formation. With this aim, we continue our analysis of the SDSS-III/APOGEE IN-SYNC survey…

Characterizing the properties of cluster precursors in the MALT90 survey

Yanett Contreras, Jill M. Rathborne, Andres Guzman +4

In the Milky Way there are thousands of stellar clusters each harboring from a hundred to a million stars. Although clusters are common, the initial conditions of cluster formation…

Linking Dense Gas from the Milky Way to External Galaxies

Ian W. Stephens, James M. Jackson, J. Scott Whitaker +5

In a survey of 65 galaxies, Gao & Solomon (2004) found a tight linear relation between the infrared luminosity (, a proxy for the star formation rate) and the HCN(1-0)…
