Roman Early-Definition Astrophysics Survey Opportunity: Galactic Roman Infrared Plane Survey (GRIPS)

Roberta Paladini, Catherine Zucker, Robert Benjamin +67

A wide-field near-infrared survey of the Galactic disk and bulge/bar(s) is supported by a large representation of the community of Galactic astronomers. The combination of sensitiv…

Repeating Outbursts from the Young Stellar Object Gaia23bab (= SPICY 97589)

Michael A. Kuhn, Robert A. Benjamin, Emille E. O. Ishida +3

The light curve of Gaia23bab (= SPICY 97589) shows two significant ( mag) brightening events, one in 2017 and an ongoing event starting in 2022. The source's quiescent spectr…

A Component of the Smith High Velocity Cloud Now Crossing the Galactic Plane

Felix J. Lockman, Robert A. Benjamin, Nicolas Pichette +1

We have identified a new structure in the Milky Way: a leading component of the Smith high velocity cloud that is now crossing the Galactic plane near longitude 25 degrees. Using n…

Caught in the Act: A Metal-Rich High-Velocity Cloud in the Inner Galaxy

Frances H. Cashman, Andrew J. Fox, Bart P. Wakker +8

We characterize the chemical and physical conditions in an outflowing high-velocity cloud in the inner Galaxy. We report a super-solar metallicity of [O/H] = for the…

Spectroscopic Confirmation of a Population of Isolated, Intermediate-Mass YSOs

Michael A. Kuhn, Ramzi Saber, Matthew S. Povich +8

Wide-field searches for young stellar objects (YSOs) can place useful constraints on the prevalence of clustered versus distributed star formation. The Spitzer/IRAC Candidate YSO (…

The Radcliffe Wave as the gas spine of the Orion Arm

Cameren Swiggum, João Alves, Elena D'Onghia +7

The Radcliffe Wave is a kpc long coherent gas structure containing most of the star-forming complexes near the Sun. In this Letter we aim to find a Galactic context for the…
