A Spectral Line Survey of Selected 3 Mm Bands toward Sagittarius B2(n-lmh) Using the Nrao 12 Meter Radio Telescope and the Bima Array I. the Observational Data
We have initiated a spectral line survey, at a wavelength of 3 millimeters, toward the hot molecular core Sagittarius B2(N-LMH). This is the first spectral line survey of the Sgr B2(N) region utilizing data from both an interferometer (BIMA Array) and a single-element radio telescope (NRAO 12 meter). In this survey, covering 3.6 GHz in bandwidth, we detected 218 lines (97 identified molecular t...
متن کاملAn Update on the Status of the Pulsar-ALFA Survey
The Pulsar-ALFA (PALFA) survey is designed to search the Galactic plane for pulsars at 1.4 GHz using the Arecibo Observatory’s 7-beam ALFA receiver. The 64-μs sampling time, 0.336-MHz frequency resolution and 300 MHz bandwidth of the observations are allowing for the detection of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) 2-3 times more distant than previous surveys. To date, PALFA has discovered 55 pulsars, s...
متن کاملDiffuse ” C ii regions in the Galactic Disk
In earlier papers (Roshi & Anantharamaiah 2000, 2001a), we presented extensive surveys (angular resolution – 2◦ × 2◦ & 2◦ × 6′) of radio recombination lines (RRLs) near 327 MHz in the longitude range l = 332◦ → 89◦ using the Ooty Radio Telescope. These surveys have detected carbon lines mostly between l = 358◦→ 20◦ and in a few positions at other longitudes. This paper presents the observed car...
متن کاملArecibo Pulsar Survey Using Alfa. I. Survey Strategy and First Discoveries
We report results from the initial stage of a long-term pulsar survey of the Galactic plane using the Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA), a seven-beam receiver operating at 1.4 GHz with 0.3 GHz bandwidth, and fastdump digital spectrometers. The search targets low Galactic latitudes, |b| . 5, in the accessible longitude ranges, 32 . l . 77 and 168 . l . 214. The instrumentation, data processing, i...
متن کاملMulti-density model of the ionised gas in NGC 253 using radio recombination lines
We have imaged the H92α (8.3 GHz), H75α (15 GHz), and H166α (1.4 GHz) Radio Recombination Lines (RRLs) from NGC 253 at resolutions of 4.5 pc (0.4) , 2.5 pc (0.2) and 53 pc (4.5) respectively. The H92α line arises from individual compact sources, most of which possess radio continuum counterparts. The line widths range from ∼200 km s for the sources near the radio nucleus to 70-100 km s for the ...
