The Bubble Nebula (or NGC 7635) is a parsec-scale seemingly spherical wind-blown bubble around the relatively unevolved O star BD+60$^\circ$2522. The small dynamical age of the nebula and significant space velocity of the star suggest that…

The VLA Galactic Plane Survey (VGPS) of the first Galactic quadrant was searched for HI emission with velocities well above the maximum velocity allowed by Galactic rotation. A sample of 17 small fast-moving clouds was identified. The…

Mid-infrared arcs of dust emission are often seen near ionizing stars within HII regions. A possible explanations for these arcs is that they could show the outer edges of asymmetric stellar wind bubbles. We use two-dimensional,…

We report the detection of a peculiar molecular cloud, CO 0.02-0.02, lying about 5' Galactic-east from the center of the Galaxy. (12)CO images taken with NRO 45 m telescope showed that it is relatively compact (about 3x4 pc^2) as well as…
