      We present the first results from the science demonstration phase for the Hi-GAL survey, the Herschel key program that will map the inner Galactic plane of the Milky Way in 5 bands. We outline our data reduction strategy ...

    • Clustering properties of far-infrared sources in Hi-Gal science demonstation phase fields 

      Billot, N.; Schisano, E.; Pestalozzi, Michele; Molinari, S.; Noriega-Crespo, A.; Mottram, J.C.; Anderson, L.D.; Elia, D.; Stringfellow, G. S.; Thompson, Mark; Polychroni, D.; Testi, L. (2011)
      We use a minimum spanning tree (MST) algorithm to characterize the spatial distribution of Galactic far-IR sources and derive their clustering properties. We aim to reveal the spatial imprint of different types of star-forming ...
