The BU-FCRAO Galactic Ring Survey

The Boston University-Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory Galactic Ring Survey (GRS) was a survey of 13CO(1-0) emission in the Milky Way covering a longitude range of l = (+18°,+55.7°) and a latitude range of |b| < 1°. The total survey area is 75.4 square degrees. The angular resolution was 4 and a velocity resolution of 0.21 km/s. The survey's velocity coverage was -5 to 135 km/s for Galactic longitudes l ≤ 40° and -5 to 85 km s-1 for Galactic longitudes l > 40°. The typical rms sensitivity per channel of the data cubes is σ(T) = 0.13 K . CADE serves a 13CO(1-0) integrated intensity and a 13CO(1-0) peak brightness map of the full GRS region. === References === * 'The Boston University-Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory Galactic Ring Survey' by Jackson, J. et al, 2006, ApJS, 163, 145 === Maps === 13CO Integrated Intensity : GRS_MOM0_1_16384.fits <html> <button class=“aladin-btn” type=“button” onclick=“connector.runWithConnection(grs_mom0)”>Aladin</button> </html> 13CO Peak Brightness : GRS_TPK_1_16384.fits <html> <button class=“aladin-btn” type=“button” onclick=“connector.runWithConnection(grs_tpk)”>Aladin</button> </html> ===HiPS === For the corresponding HIPS, unzip the directory and put it directly in an Aladin window to display the map 13CO Integrated Intensity : GRS_MOM0.zip 13CO Peak Brightness : GRS_TPK.zip <html> <script src=“lib/scripts/aladin-btns.js”></script> <script> Broadcast a table given a hub connection. var grs_mom0 = function(connection) { var msg = new samp.Message(“image.load.fits”, {“url”: “http://cade.irap.omp.eu/documents/Ancillary/GRS/GRS_MOM0_1_16384.fits”,“name”:“GRS 13CO(1-0) MOM0”} ); connection.notifyAll([msg]); }; var grs_tpk = function(connection) { var msg = new samp.Message(“image.load.fits”, {“url”: “http://cade.irap.omp.eu/documents/Ancillary/GRS/GRS_TPK_1_16384.fits”,“name”:“GRS 13CO(1-0) TPEAK”} ); connection.notifyAll([msg]); }; Aladin visualizations jQuery().ready(function($){ var aladin_01 = A.aladin('#aladin-lite-div-grs_mom0', {zoom:170}); aladin_01.setFrame('Galactic'); aladin_01.gotoPosition(0, 0); aladin_01.setImageSurvey(aladin_01.createImageSurvey( 'GRS_MOM0', 'GRS_MOM0', 'http://cade.irap.omp.eu/documents/Ancillary/4Aladin/GRS_MOM0/', 'Galactic', 3 )); aladin_01.getBaseImageLayer().getColorMap().update('rainbow'); var aladin_02 = A.aladin('#aladin-lite-div-grs_tpk', {zoom:170}); aladin_02.setFrame('Galactic'); aladin_02.gotoPosition(0, 0); aladin_02.setImageSurvey(aladin_02.createImageSurvey( 'GRS_TPK', 'GRS_TPK,
