Distances to molecular clouds at high galactic latitudes based on Gaia DR2

TL;DR: In this article, the distances of molecular clouds at high Galactic latitudes (|b | > 10°) derived from parallax and G -band extinction (A G ) measurements in the second Gaia data release, Gaia DR2.
Journal ArticleDOI

The spectral variability of the GHz-peaked spectrum radio source PKS 1718-649 and a comparison of absorption models

TL;DR: In this paper, Parkes et al. found that the PKS 1718-649 spectrum and its variability are best explained by variations in the free-free optical depth on our line of sight to the radio source at low frequencies (below the spectral peak) and the adiabatic expansion of the radio sources itself at high frequencies (above the peak).
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Fast Transients at Cosmological Distances with the SKA

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a sample of 104 fast radio bursts (FRBs) whose positions are localized to within one arcsecond, sufficient to obtain host galaxy redshifts via optical follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI

On detecting millisecond pulsars at the galactic center

TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate the best search frequency for such an MSP population with present and upcoming broadband radio telescopes for two possible scattering scenarios, the "weak-scattering" case suggested by the recent detection of a magnetar close to the Galactic Center (GC) and the "strong" case, with the scattering screen located close to a GC.
