GOTHAM — GBT Observations of TMC-1: Hunting Aromatic Molecules

GOTHAM is an extremely high-sensitivity (2 mK), high-resolution (0.02 km/s) spectral line survey of the cold core TMC-1 in X, K, and Ka bands. Pilot, targeted observations of the source over only <2 GHz of total bandwidth resulted in the detection of three new astronomical molecules, including the first radio detection of a benzene-ring aromatic…

GDIGS — The GBT Diffuse Ionized Gas Survey

The GBT Diffuse Ionized Gas Survey (GDIGS) is a large ongoing survey to map radio recombination line emission from diffuse ionized gas in the Galactic plane. Diffuse ionized gas known as the “Warm Ionized Medium (WIM)” is a major component of the interstellar medium, making up ∼20% of the total Milky Way gas mass and…
