Radio Ammonia Mid-plane Survey (RAMPS) pilot survey

DOI

The Radio Ammonia Mid-Plane Survey (RAMPS) is a molecular line survey that aims to map a portion of the Galactic midplane in the first quadrant of the Galaxy (l=10{deg}-40{deg}, |b|<=0.4{deg}) using the Green Bank Telescope. We present results from the pilot survey, which has mapped approximately 6.5 square degrees in fields centered at l=10{deg}, 23{deg}, 24{deg}, 28{deg}, 29{deg}, 30{deg}, 31{deg}, 38{deg}, 45{deg}, and 47{deg}. RAMPS observes the NH3 inversion transitions NH_3_(1,1)-(5,5), the H_2_O 6_1,6_-5_2,3_ maser line at 22.235GHz, and several other molecular lines. We present a representative portion of the data from the pilot survey, including NH_3_(1,1) and NH_3_(2,2) integrated intensity maps, H_2_O maser positions, maps of NH_3_ velocity, NH_3_ line width, total NH_3_ column density, and NH_3_ rotational temperature.
