The Galactic centre region
We have observed the central 45 region of the Galaxy at 620 MHz band of the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) in radio continuum, and measured the polarisation properties of 64 small diameter background extragalactic sources seen through the −6< l <6, −2< b <2 region with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) and the Very Large Array (VLA). Our 620 MHz observations show that Sgr A* ...
متن کاملLine Survey Observations of the Galactic Plane
We present results of our survey observations of the [C II] 158 μm line emission from the Galactic plane using the Balloon-borne Infrared Carbon Explorer (BICE). Our survey covers a wide area (350◦∼< l ∼< 25, |b| ∼< 3) with a spatial resolution of 15. We employed a new observing method called the “fast spectral scanning” to make large-scale observations efficiently. Strong [C II] line emission ...
متن کاملVery High Energy γ-ray Observations of the Galactic Centre Region
Recent progress in pushing the sensitivity of the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique into the 10 mCrab regime has enabled first sensitive observations of the innermost few 100 pc of the Milky Way in Very High Energy (VHE; > 100 GeV) γ-rays. These observations are a valuable tool to understand the acceleration and propagation of energetic particles near the Galactic Centre. Remarkably, besi...
متن کاملA Molecular Face-on View of the Galactic Centre Region
We present a method to derive positions of molecular clouds along the lines of sight from a quantitative comparison between 2.6mm CO emission lines and 18 cm OH absorption lines, and apply it to the central kiloparsecs of the Milky Way. With some simple but justifiable assumptions, we derive a face-on distribution of the CO brightness and corresponding radial velocity in the Galactic centre wit...
متن کاملCO Spectral Line Energy Distributions in Galactic Sources: Empirical Interpretation of Extragalactic Observations
The relative populations in rotational transitions of CO can be useful for inferring gas conditions and excitation mechanisms at work in the interstellar medium. We present CO emission lines from rotational transitions observed with Herschel/HIFI in the star-forming cores OrionS, OrionKL, SgrB2(M), and W49N. Integrated line fluxes from these observations are combined with those from Herschel...
