A CO Funnel in the Galactic Centre: Molecular Counterpart of the Northern Galactic Chimney?

V. S. Veena, D. Riquelme, W. -J. Kim +7

We report the discovery of a velocity coherent, funnel shaped ^13CO emission feature in the Galactic centre (GC) using data from the SEDIGISM survey. The molecular cloud appears as…

Kinematics of Galactic Centre clouds shaped by shear-seeded solenoidal turbulence

Maya A. Petkova, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Jonathan D. Henshaw +17

The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ; the central ~ 500 pc of the Galaxy) is a kinematically unusual environment relative to the Galactic disc, with high velocity dispersions and a stee…

Living on the edge of the Central Molecular Zone: G1.3 is the more likely candidate for gas accretion into the CMZ

Laura A. Busch, Denise Riquelme, Rolf Güsten +3

The 1.3deg (G1.3) and 1.6deg (G1.6) cloud complexes in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of our Galaxy have been proposed to possibly reside at the intersection region of the X1 and…

SOFIA-upGREAT imaging spectroscopy of the [C II] 158um fine structure line of the Sgr B region in the Galactic center

A. I. Harris, R. Güsten, M. A. Requena-Torres +8

We report SOFIA-upGREAT spectroscopic imaging of the [C II] 158um spectral line, as well as a number of [O I] 63um spectra, across a 67x45 pc field toward the Sgr B region in our G…

The Dense Warm Ionized Medium in the Inner Galaxy

W. D. Langer, J. L. Pineda, P. F. Goldsmith +6

Ionized interstellar gas is an important component of the interstellar medium and its lifecycle. The recent evidence for a widely distributed highly ionized warm interstellar gas w…

Characterizing the Multi-Phase Origin of [CII] Emission in M101 and NGC 6946 with Velocity Resolved Spectroscopy

Elizabeth Tarantino, Alberto D. Bolatto, Rodrigo Herrera-Camus +10

The [CII] fine-structure transition at 158 micron is frequently the brightest far-infrared line in galaxies. Due to its low ionization potential, C+ can trace the ionized, atomic,…
