Synchrotron emission pervades the Galactic plane at low radio frequencies, originating from cosmic ray electrons interacting with the Galactic magnetic field. Using a low-frequency radio telescope, the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), we measure the free-free absorption of this Galactic synchrotron emission by intervening HII regions along the line of sight. These absorption measurements allow us to calculate the Galactic cosmic-ray electron emissivity behind and in front of 47 detected HII regions in the region $250^circ < l < 355^circ$, $|b| < 2^circ$. We find that all average emissivities between the HII regions and the Galactic edge along the line of sight ($epsilon_b$) are in the range of 0.24$,,sim,,$0.70$,,$K$,,$pc$^{-1}$ with a mean of 0.40$,,$K$,,$pc$^{-1}$ and a variance of 0.10$,,$K$,,$pc$^{-1}$ at 88$,,$MHz. Our best model, the Two-circle model, divides the Galactic disk into three regions using two circles centring on the Galactic centre. It shows a high emissivity region near the Galactic centre, a low emissivity region near the Galactic edge, and a medium emissivity region between these two regions, contrary to the trend found by previous studies.

We present the Forgotten Quadrant Survey (FQS), an ESO large project that used the 12m antenna of the Arizona Radio Observatory to map the Galactic Plane in the range 220deg$<l<$240deg and -2.5deg$<b<$0deg, both in $^{12}$CO(1-0) and $^{13}$CO(1-0),
at a spectral resolution of 0.65 km s$^{-1}$ and 0.26 km s$^{-1}$. Our dataset allows us to easily identify how the molecular dense gas is organised at different spatial scales: from the giant clouds with their denser filamentary networks, down to the clumps and cores that host the newborn stars and to obtain reliable estimates of their key physical parameters. We present the first release of the FQS data and discuss their quality. Spectra with 0.65 km s$^{-1}$ velocity channels have a noise ranging from 0.8 K to 1.3 K for $^{12}$CO(1-0) and from 0.3 K to 0.6 K for $^{13}$CO(1-0). In this paper, we used the $^{12}$CO(1-0) spectral cubes to produce a catalogue of 263 molecular clouds. This is the first selfconsistent, statistical catalogue of molecular clouds of the outer Galaxy, obtained with a subarcminute spatial resolution and therefore able to detect not only the classical giant molecular clouds, but also the small clouds and to resolve the cloud structure at the subparsec scale up to a distance of a few kpc. We found two classes of objects: structures with size above a few parsecs that are typical molecular clouds and may be self-gravitating, and subparsec structures that cannot be in gravitational equilibrium and are likely transient or confined by external pressure. We used the ratio between the Herschel H$_2$ column density and the integrated intensity of the CO lines to calculate the CO conversion factor and we found mean values of (3.3$pm$1.4)$times 10^{20}$ cm$^{-2}$(K km s$^{-1})^{-1}$ and (1.2$pm$0.4)$times 10^{21}$ cm$^{-2}$(K km s$^{-1})^{-1}$, for $^{12}$CO(1-0) and $^{13}$CO(1-0), respectively.
The Multipurpose InfraRed Imaging System (MIRIS) performed the MIRIS Pa{alpha} Galactic Plane Survey (MIPAPS), which covers the entire Galactic plane within the latitude range of -3{deg} < b < +3{deg} at Pa{alpha} (1.87 um). We present the first resu
lt of the MIPAPS data extracted from the longitude range of l = 96.5{deg}-116.3{deg}, and demonstrate the data quality and scientific potential of the data by comparing them with H{alpha} maps obtained from the INT Photometric H{alpha} Survey (IPHAS) data. We newly identify 90 H II region candidates in the WISE H II region catalog as definite H II regions by detecting the Pa{alpha} and/or H{alpha} recombination lines, out of which 53 H II regions are detected at Pa{alpha}. We also report the detection of additional 29 extended and 18 point-like sources at Pa{alpha}. We estimate the E(B-V) color excesses and the total Lyman continuum luminosities for H II regions by combining the MIPAPS Pa{alpha} and IPHAS H{alpha} fluxes. The E(B-V) values are found to be systematically lower than those estimated from point stars associated with H II regions. Utilizing the MIPAPS Pa{alpha} and IPHAS H{alpha} images, we obtain an E(B-V) map for the entire region of the H II region Sh2-131 with an angular size of ~2.5{deg}. The E(B-V) map shows not only numerous high-extinction filamentary features but also negative E(B-V) regions, indicating H{alpha} excess. The H{alpha} excess and the systematic underestimation of E(B-V) are attributed to light scattered by dust.
Surveys of the Milky Way at various wavelengths have changed our view of star formation in our Galaxy considerably in recent years. In this paper we give an overview of the GLOSTAR survey, a new survey covering large parts (145 square degrees) of the
northern Galactic plane using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA) in the frequency range 4-8 GHz and the Effelsberg 100-m telescope. This provides for the first time a radio survey covering all angular scales down to 1.5 arcsecond, similar to complementary near-IR and mid-IR galactic plane surveys. We outline the main goals of the survey and give a detailed description of the observations and the data reduction strategy. In our observations we covered the radio continuum in full polarization, as well as the 6.7 GHz methanol maser line, the 4.8~GHz formaldehyde line, and seven radio recombination lines. The observations were conducted in the most compact D configuration of the VLA and in the more extended B configuration. This yielded spatial resolutions of 18 and 1.5 for the two configurations, respectively. We also combined the D configuration images with the Effelsberg 100-m data to provide zero spacing information, and we jointly imaged the D- and B-configuration data for optimal sensitivity of the intermediate spatial ranges. Here we show selected results for the first part of the survey, covering the range of 28 deg <l<36 deg and |b|< 1 deg, including the full low-resolution continuum image, examples of high-resolution images of selected sources, and the first results from the spectral line data.
(Abridged) We present the first public release of high-quality data products (DR1) from Hi-GAL, the {em Herschel} infrared Galactic Plane Survey. Hi-GAL is the keystone of a suite of continuum Galactic Plane surveys from the near-IR to the radio, and
covers five wavebands at 70, 160, 250, 350 and 500 micron, encompassing the peak of the spectral energy distribution of cold dust for 8 < T < 50K. This first Hi-GAL data release covers the inner Milky Way in the longitude range 68{deg} > l > -70{deg} in a |b|<1{deg} latitude strip. Photometric maps have been produced with the ROMAGAL pipeline, that optimally capitalizes on the excellent sensitivity and stability of the bolometer arrays of the {em Herschel} PACS and SPIRE photometric cameras, to deliver images of exquisite quality and dynamical range, absolutely calibrated with {em Planck} and {em IRAS}, and recovering extended emission at all wavelengths and all spatial scales. The compact source catalogues have been generated with the CuTEx algorithm, specifically developed to optimize source detection and extraction in the extreme conditions of intense and spatially varying background that are found in the Galactic Plane in the thermal infrared. Hi-GAL DR1 images will be accessible via a dedicated web-based image cutout service. The DR1 Compact Source Catalogues are delivered as single-band photometric lists containing, in addition to source position, peak and integrated flux and source sizes, a variety of parameters useful to assess the quality and reliability of the extracted sources, caveats and hints to help this assessment are provided. Flux completeness limits in all bands are determined from extensive synthetic source experiments and depend on the specific line of sight along the Galactic Plane. Hi-GAL DR1 catalogues contain 123210, 308509, 280685, 160972 and 85460 compact sources in the five bands, respectively.
We derive the synchrotron distribution in the Milky Way disk from HII region absorption observations over -40{deg} < l < 40{deg} at six frequencies of 76.2, 83.8, 91.5, 99.2, 106.9, and 114.6 MHz with the GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky Murchison
widefield array survey (GLEAM). We develop a new method of emissivity calculation by taking advantage of the Haslam et al., (1981) map and known spectral indices, which enable us to simultaneously derive the emissivity and the optical depth of HII regions at each frequency. We show our derived synchrotron emissivities based on 152 absorption features of HII regions using both the method previously adopted in the literature and our improved method. We derive the synchrotron emissivity from HII regions to the Galactic edge along the line of sight and, for the first time, derive the emissivity from HII regions to the Sun. These results provide direct information on the distribution of the Galactic magnetic field and cosmic-ray electrons for future modelling.
