The Green Bank Telescope & Next Generation RADAR
The Next Generation Radar program (ngRADAR) is a collaboration between the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO), Green Bank Observatory (GBO), and Raytheon Space & Intelligence. Together they will create an active radar system for GBO’s 100-meter Green Bank Telescope (GBT) using the latest solid-state technology. For twenty years, Green Bank Observatory’s 100-meter radio telescope has…

RAMPS — The Radio Ammonia Mid-Plane Survey
RAMPS Data Project Summary High-mass stars (M > 8 MSun), though rarer than low-mass stars, are nevertheless a dominant source of energy and chemical enrichment in the interstellar medium (ISM). Because massive stars are rarer and form in denser, more opaque gas, their formation is more difficult to observe and is less well understood than…

Galactic and Extragalactic High Velocity Clouds
High-Velocity Clouds (HVCs), those assemblies of gas around galaxies that do not follow the galactic rotation, have been enigmatic since their discovery almost 60 years ago. Recent observational and theoretical advances have clarified their properties and importance to galaxy formation and evolution. To explore this topic further, a Green Bank Workshop on “Galactic and Extragalactic…
