Most nearby young star clusters formed in three massive complexes
Cameren Swiggum, João Alves, Robert Benjamin +9
Efforts to unveil the structure of the local interstellar medium and its recent star formation history have spanned the past seventy years. Recent studies utilizing precise data fr…
Characterizing the 3D Structure of Molecular Cloud Envelopes in the "Cloud Factory" Simulations
Elijah Mullens, Catherine Zucker, Claire E. Murray +1
We leverage recent numerical simulations of highly resolved star-forming regions in a Milky Way-like Galaxy to explore the nature of extended gaseous envelopes around molecular clo…
The Radcliffe Wave is Oscillating
Ralf Konietzka, Alyssa A. Goodman, Catherine Zucker +6
Our Sun lies within 300 pc of the 2.7-kpc-long sinusoidal chain of dense gas clouds known as the Radcliffe Wave. The structure's wave-like shape was discovered using 3D dust mappin…
High-quality Extragalactic Legacy-field Monitoring (HELM) with DECam
Ming-Yang Zhuang, Qian Yang, Yue Shen +45
High-quality Extragalactic Legacy-field Monitoring (HELM) is a long-term observing program that photometrically monitors several well-studied extragalactic legacy fields with the D…
The Corona Australis star formation complex is accelerating away from the Galactic plane
L. Posch, N. Miret-Roig, J. Alves +5
We study the kinematics of the recently discovered Corona Australis (CrA) chain of clusters by examining the 3D space motion of its young stars using Gaia DR3 and APOGEE-2 data. Wh…
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…
