We present a new, detailed, analysis of the spatial distribution of Galactic HII regions, exploiting a far richer database than used in previous analyses. Galactocentric distances have been derived for 550 objects. Distances from the Sun could be unambiguously derived from velocity data for 117 of them, lying either outside the solar circle (84) or on a line-of-sight tangential to their orbit (33). For 177 further sources, distance estimates are made possible by the use of auxiliary data. A highly significant correlation between luminosity and linear diameter was found and the corresponding least-square linear relationship in the log-log plane was used to resolve the distance ambiguity for an additional 256 sources. Within the solar circle the thickness of the distribution of HII regions around the Galactic plane was found to be comparable to that of OB stars (Bronfman et al. 2000). At larger galactocentric radii the shape of the distribution reflects that of the warp, and its thickness along the z axis increases with increasing distance from the Galactic centre. We also confirm, for a much larger sample, the previously reported positive gradient of electron temperature with galactocentric distance.
We derive the molecular properties for a sample of 301 Galactic HII regions including 123 ultra compact (UC), 105 compact, and 73 diffuse nebulae. We analyze all sources within the BU-FCRAO Galactic Ring Survey (GRS) of 13CO emission known to be HII
We present a comprehensive statistical analysis of star-forming objects located in the vicinities of 1 360 bubble structures throughout the Galactic Plane and their local environments. The compilation of ~70 000 star-forming sources, found in the pro
We derive infrared and radio flux densities of all ~1000 known Galactic HII regions in the Galactic longitude range 17.5 < l < 65 degree. Our sample comes from the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) catalog of Galactic hii regions citep{ander
HII regions are known to contribute to the so-called thin layer of the diffuse Warm Ionized Gas. In order to constrain this contribution, we reconstruct the 3-D distribution of the sources. A detailed spatial analysis of the largest up-to-date sample of HII regions is presented.
We have re-analyzed continuum and recombination lines radio data available in the literature in order to derive the luminosity function (LF) of Galactic HII regions. The study is performed by considering the first and fourth Galactic quadrants indepe
