The Vertical Structure of Warm Ionised Gas in the Milky Way
B. M. Gaensler, G. J. Madsen, S. Chatterjee +1
We present a new joint analysis of pulsar dispersion measures and diffuse H-alpha emission in the Milky Way, which we use to derive the density, pressure and filling factor of the…
A Search for Extended Ultraviolet Disk (XUV-disk) Galaxies in the Local Universe
David A. Thilker, Luciana Bianchi, Gerhardt Meurer +26
We have initiated a search for extended ultraviolet disk (XUV-disk) galaxies in the local universe. Herein, we compare GALEX UV and visible--NIR images of 189 nearby (D40 Mpc) S…
Dynamical Zodiacal Cloud Models Constrained by High Resolution Spectroscopy of the Zodiacal Light
S. I. Ipatov, A. S. Kutyrev, G. J. Madsen +3
We present simulated observations of the Doppler shifts of the solar Mg I Fraunhofer line scattered by asteroidal, cometary, and trans-Neptunian dust particles. The studies are bas…
An Optical Emission Line Survey of Large Planetary Nebulae
G. J. Madsen, D. J. Frew, Q. A. Parker +2
Accurate emission line fluxes from planetary nebulae (PNe) provide important constraints on the nature of the final phases of stellar evolution. Large, evolved PNe may trace the la…
New Observations and Models of the Kinematics of the Zodiacal Dust Cloud
G. J. Madsen, R. J. Reynolds, S. I. Ipatov +3
We report on new observations of the motion of zodiacal dust using optical absorption line spectroscopy of zodiacal light. We have measured the change in the profile shape of the s…
Unresolved H-Alpha Enhancements at High Galactic Latitude in the WHAM Sky Survey Maps
R. J. Reynolds, V. Chaudhary, G. J. Madsen +1
We have identified 85 regions of enhanced H-Alpha emission at |b| > 10 degrees subtending approximately 1 degree or less on the Wisconsin H-Alpha Mapper (WHAM) sky survey. These hi…
