Mass distribution in the galactic centre
M. K. Crawford,Reinhard Genzel,Andrew I. Harris,D. T. Jaffe,John H. Lacy,John H. Lacy,J. B. Lugten,Eugene Serabyn,Charles H. Townes +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mass distribution at the center of the Galaxy is more concentrated than a spherical isothermal stellar cluster, which is consistent with a cluster where stellar density decreases with radius (R) at least as fast as R to the -2.7.
Journal ArticleDOI
Examination of Methods for Detecting OH
TL;DR: The microwave spectrum of OH affords a new method of determining the abundance of OH in a low-pressure gas mixture as discussed by the authors, which is applied to the products of a discharge in H2O and shows that certain previous methods for detecting the presence of OH radicals in fact are not sensitive to OH, but to some other reactive components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations of far-infrared fine structure lines - Forbidden O III 88.35 microns and forbidden O I 63.2 microns
TL;DR: In this article, the fine-structure lines of forbidden O III at 88.35 microns and forbidden O I at 63.2 microns were detected in a number of sources by means of an airborne far-IR spectrometer.

Ne II 12.8 micron emission and galactic dynamics in M82.
TL;DR: In this paper, fine-structure emission at 12.8 microns from the galaxy M82 has been spatially and spectrally resolved, and a recessional velocity of 215 + or - 20 km/s is found for the galaxy, and there is evidence for large-scale noncircular motion of the gas within the inner 150 pc of the nebula.
