VLA observations of the Galactic center

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present new results based on high-resolution observations of Sgr A West at the Galactic center with the Very Large Array (VLA) at 1.3cm.

Description

By combining recent observations with those made at earlier epochs with the VLA at wavelengths of 1.3 and 3.6cm, we measured proper motions for 71 compact HII components in the central 80" (3pc, assuming D=8pc). Using VLA archival data for the H92{alpha} radio recombination line, we also investigated radial velocities in the LSR velocity range from +200 to -415km/s.

Combining proper motion and radial velocity measurements, we have determined the three-dimensional velocity distribution in Sgr A West.
