    • Ammonia observations of bright-rimmed clouds : establishing a sample of triggered protostars 

      Morgan, L.K.; Figura, C.C.; Urquhart, J.S.; Thompson, M.A. (2010)
      We observed 42 molecular condensations within previously identified bright-rimmed clouds in the ammonia rotational inversion lines NH3(1,1), (2,2), (3,3) and (4,4) using the Green Bank Telescope in Green Bank, West Virginia. ...

    • ATLASGAL - properties of a complete sample of Galactic clumps 

      Urquhart, J.S.; Koenig, C.; Giannetti, A.; Leurini, S.; Moore, T. J. T.; Eden, D.~J.; Pillai, T.; Thompson, M. A.; Braiding, C.; Burton, M. G.; Csengeri, T.; Dempsey, J. T.; Figura, C.C.; Froebrich, D.; Menten, K.~M.; Schuller, F.; Smith, M. D.; Wyrowski, F. (2018-01-01)
      The APEX Telescope Large Area Survey of the Galaxy (ATLASGAL) is an unbiased 870 μm submillimetre survey of the inner Galactic plane (|ℓ| < 60° with |b| < 1.°5). It is the largest and most sensitive ground-based submillimetre ...

    • The RMS survey : Galactic distribution of massive star formation 

      Urquhart, J.S.; Figura, C.C.; Moore, T. J. T.; Hoare, M.G.; Lumsden, S. L.; Mottram, J.C.; Thompson, Mark; Oudmaijer, R.D. (2013-11)
      We have used the well-selected sample of~1750 embedded, young, massive stars identified by the Red MSX Source (RMS) survey to investigate the Galactic distribution of recent massive star formation. We present molecular ...
