3-D CMZ II: Hierarchical Structure Analysis of the Central Molecular Zone

Cara Battersby, Daniel L. Walker, Ashley Barnes +16

The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is the way station at the heart of our Milky Way Galaxy, connecting gas flowing in from Galactic scales with the central nucleus. Key open question…

3-D CMZ III: Constraining the 3-D structure of the Central Molecular Zone via molecular line emission and absorption

Daniel L. Walker, Cara Battersby, Dani Lipman +15

The Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is the largest concentration of dense molecular gas in the Galaxy, the structure of which is shaped by the complex interplay between Ga…

3-D CMZ I: Central Molecular Zone Overview

Cara Battersby, Daniel L. Walker, Ashley Barnes +16

The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is the largest reservoir of dense molecular gas in the Galaxy and is heavily obscured in the optical and near-IR. We present an overview of the far…
