An extremely active repeating fast radio burst source in a likely non-magneto-ionic environment

Yi Feng, Di Li, Yong-Kun Zhang +24

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright radio bursts originating at cosmological distances. Only three repeating FRBs FRB 20121102A, FRB 20190520B and FRB 20201124A among 60 kno…

Discovery of a New Population of Galactic HII Regions with Ionized Gas Velocity Gradients

Dana S. Balser, Trey V. Wenger, L. D. Anderson +4

We investigate the kinematic properties of Galactic HII regions using radio recombination line (RRL) emission detected by the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 4-10 GHz a…

Assessing the stellar population and the environment of an HII region on the far side of the Galaxy

A. -N. Chené, R. A. Benjamin, S. Ramírez Alegría +15

We have investigated the stellar and interstellar content of the distant star formation region IRAS 17591-2228 (WISE HII region GAL 007.47+0.06). It is associated to a water maser,…

A VLA Census of the Galactic H II Region Population

William P. Armentrout, Loren D. Anderson, Trey V. Wenger +2

The Milky Way contains thousands of H II region candidates identified by their characteristic mid-infrared morphology, but lacking detections of ionized gas tracers such as radio c…

The Galactic HII Region Luminosity Function at Radio and Infrared Wavelengths

J. L. Mascoop, L. D. Anderson, Trey. V. Wenger +4

The Galactic HII region luminosity function (LF) is an important metric for understanding global star formation properties of the Milky Way, but only a few studies have been done a…

The MUSTANG-2 Galactic Plane Survey (MGPS90) pilot

Adam Ginsburg, L. D. Anderson, Simon Dicker +19

We report the results of a pilot program for a Green Bank Telescope (GBT) MUSTANG Galactic Plane survey at 3 mm (90 GHz), MGPS90. The survey achieves a typical depth of …

The Southern HII Region Discovery Survey I: The Bright Catalog

Trey V. Wenger, John. M. Dickey, C. H. Jordan +7

The census of Galactic HII regions is vastly incomplete in the Southern sky. We use the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) to observe 4-10 GHz radio continuum and hydrogen ra…

A Galactic Plane Defined by the Milky Way HII Region Distribution

L. D. Anderson, Trey V. Wenger, W. P. Armentrout +2

We develop a framework for a new definition of the Galactic midplane, allowing for tilt (rotation about Galactic azimuth 90deg.), and roll (rotation about Galactic azimuth 0deg.) o…

Carbon Monoxide Observations Toward Star Forming Regions in the Outer Scutum-Centaurus Spiral Arm

Trey V. Wenger, Asad A. Khan, Nicholas G. Ferraro +4

The Outer Scutum-Centaurus arm (OSC) is the most distant molecular spiral arm known in the Milky Way. The OSC may be the very distant end of the well-known Scutum-Centaurus arm, wh…

The WISE Catalog of Galactic HII Regions

L. D. Anderson, T. M. Bania, Dana S. Balser +4

Using data from the all-sky Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) satellite, we made a catalog of over 8000 Galactic HII regions and HII region candidates by searching for the…
