Probing the Fermi Bubbles in Ultraviolet Absorption: A Spectroscopic Signature of the Milky Way's Biconical Nuclear Outflow
Andrew J. Fox, Rongmon Bordoloi, Blair D. Savage +9
Giant lobes of plasma extend 55 degrees above and below the Galactic Center, glowing in emission from gamma rays (the Fermi Bubbles) to microwaves (the WMAP haze) and polarized rad…
Milky Way demographics with the VVV Survey III. Evidence for a Great Dark Lane in the 157 Million Star Bulge Color-Magnitude Diagram
D. Minniti, R. K. Saito, O. A. Gonzalez +10
The new generation of IR surveys are revealing and quantifying Galactic features, providing an improved 3-D interpretation of our own Galaxy. We present an analysis of the global d…
The Interstellar Medium and Star Formation in Edge-On Galaxies. II. NGC 4157, 4565, and 5907
Kijeong Yim, Tony Wong, Rui Xue +5
We present a study of the vertical structure of the gaseous and stellar disks in a sample of edge-on galaxies (NGC 4157, 4565, and 5907) using BIMA/CARMA 12CO (J = 1 --> 0), VLA H…
The Bones of the Milky Way
Alyssa A. Goodman, Joao Alves, Christopher N. Beaumont +8
The very long and thin infrared dark cloud "Nessie" is even longer than had been previously claimed, and an analysis of its Galactic location suggests that it lies directly in the…
Halpha and [S II] emission from warm ionized gas in the Scutum-Centaurus Arm
Alex S. Hill, Robert A. Benjamin, L. Matthew Haffner +2
We present Wisconsin H-Alpha Mapper [S II] λ6716 and Hα spectroscopic maps of the warm ionized medium (WIM) in the Scutum-Centaurus Arm at Galactic longitudes 310° < l < 345°. Usin…
Chasing the Identification of ASCA Galactic Objects (ChIcAGO) - An X-ray Survey of Unidentified Sources in the Galactic Plane I: Source Sample and Initial Results
G. E. Anderson, B. M. Gaensler, D. L. Kaplan +18
We present the Chasing the Identification of ASCA Galactic Objects (ChIcAGO) survey, which is designed to identify the unknown X-ray sources discovered during the ASCA Galactic Pla…
