The Most Sensitive Radio Recombination Line Measurements Ever Made of the Galactic Warm Ionized Medium

T. M. Bania, Dana S. Balser, Trey V. Wenger +3

Diffuse ionized gas pervades the disk of the Milky Way. We detect extremely faint emission from this Galactic Warm Ionized Medium (WIM) using the Green Bank Telescope to make radio…

Methods for Averaging Spectral Line Data

L. D. Anderson, B. Liu, Dana S. Balser +5

The ideal spectral averaging method depends on one's science goals and the available information about one's data. Including low-quality data in the average can decrease the signal…

The GBT Diffuse Ionized Gas Survey (GDIGS): Discrete Sources

Dylan J. Linville, Matteo Luisi, L. D. Anderson +6

The Green Bank Telescope (GBT) Diffuse Ionized Gas Survey (GDIGS) traces ionized gas in the Galactic midplane by observing radio recombination line (RRL) emission from 4-8 GHz. The…

The GBT Diffuse Ionized Gas Survey: Tracing the Diffuse Ionized Gas around the Giant HII Region W43

Matteo Luisi, L. D. Anderson, Bin Liu +4

The Green Bank Telescope (GBT) Diffuse Ionized Gas Survey (GDIGS) is a fully-sampled radio recombination line (RRL) survey of the inner Galaxy at C-band (4-8 GHz). We average toget…

Kinematic Distances: A Monte Carlo Method

Trey V. Wenger, Dana S. Balser, L. D. Anderson +1

Distances to high mass star forming regions (HMSFRs) in the Milky Way are a crucial constraint on the structure of the Galaxy. Only kinematic distances are available for a majority…

Diffuse Ionized Gas in the Milky Way Disk

Matteo Luisi, L. D. Anderson, Dana S. Balser +2

We analyze the diffuse ionized gas (DIG) in the first Galactic quadrant from l=18deg to 40deg using radio recombination line (RRL) data from the Green Bank Telescope. These data al…

High-Mass Star Formation in the Outer Scutum-Centaurus Arm

W. P. Armentrout, L. D. Anderson, Dana S. Balser +3

The Outer Scutum-Centaurus (OSC) spiral arm is the most distant molecular spiral arm in the Milky Way, but until recently little was known about this structure. Discovered by Dame…

Finding Distant Galactic HII Regions

L. D. Anderson, W. P. Armentrout, B. M. Johnstone +4

The WISE Catalog of Galactic HII Regions contains HII region candidates lacking ionized gas spectroscopic observations. All candidates have the characteristic HII region…

Mopra CO Observations of the Bubble HII Region RCW120

L. D. Anderson, L. Deharveng, A. Zavagno +6

We use the Mopra radio telescope to test for expansion of the molecular gas associated with the bubble HII region RCW120. A ring, or bubble, morphology is common for Galactic HII r…
