Fundamental Parameters of the Milky Way Galaxy Based on VLBI astrometry

Mareki Honma, Takumi Nagayama, Kazuma Ando +31

We present analyses to determine the fundamental parameters of the Galaxy based on VLBI astrometry of 52 Galactic maser sources obtained with VERA, VLBA and EVN. We model the Galax…

The first detection of the 232 GHz vibrationally excited H2O maser in Orion KL with ALMA

Tomoya Hirota, Mi Kyoung Kim, Mareki Honma

We investigated the ALMA science verification data of Orion KL and found a spectral signature of the vibrationally excited H2O maser line at 232.68670 GHz (nu2=1, 5,5,0-6,4,3). Thi…

DNC/HNC Ratio of Massive Clumps in Early Evolutionary Stages of High-Mass Star Formation

Takeshi Sakai, Nami Sakai, Kenji Furuya +3

We have observed the HN13C J=1-0 and DNC J=1-0 lines toward 18 massive clumps, including infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) and high-mass protostellar objects (HMPOs), by using the Nobey…
