The Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory's Synthesis Telescope provides the highest resolution data (1 arcmin and 0.82 km/s) to date of an HI worm candidate. Observed as part of the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey, mushroom-shaped GW…

Recent HI emission observations of the Southern Galactic hemisphere have revealed a mushroom-like structure extending from z=-70 to -450 pc, composed of a stem and a cap. Similar structures occur in three-dimensional simulations of a…

The unusual mushroom-shaped HI cloud, GW 123.4--1.5, is hundreds of parsecs in size but does not show any correlations to HI shells or chimney structures. To investigate the origin and velocity structure of GW 123.4--1.5, we perform…

We propose that the mushroom-shaped structure of the Galactic worm GW 123.4--1.5 is created by a cloud collision with the Galactic gas disk. A hydrodynamic simulation shows that a mushroom-shaped structure is created after the cloud crosses…

We have carried out high-resolution (~3') HI and CO line observations of GW46.4+5.5 and analyzed available IR and radio emission survey data. GW46.4+5.5 appears as a long filamentary structure extending vertically from the Galactic plane in…

The atomic hydrogen gas (HI) disk in the outer region (beyond ~10 kpc from the centre) of Milky Way can provide valuable information about the structure of the dark matter halo. The recent 3-D thickness map of the outer HI disk from the all…

A density based hierarchical group-finding algorithm is used to identify stellar halo structures in a catalog of M-giants from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS). The intrinsic brightness of M-giant stars means that this catalog probes…

Recent spectroscopic observations of intermediate- and high-velocity clouds (IVCs and HVCs) in the Milky Way halo have unveiled the presence of diffuse interstellar molecular hydrogen (H_2) several kpc away from the Galactic disk. Most of…

Data from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey reveal an abundance of HI shells and arcs in the disk of our galaxy. While their shape is suggestive of stellar winds or supernovae influence, very few of these structures have been examined in…

We study the properties of low-column density gas clumps in the halo of the Milky Way based on high-resolution 21-cm observations. Using interferometric data from the WSRT and the VLA we study HI emission at low-, intermediate- and high…

Using the IRAS Infrared Sky Survey Atlas, we have made 60 x 60 deg mosaics of the far-infrared emission in the Milky Way. By applying a median normalizing spatial filter, we were able to eliminate the strong gradient in brightness towards…

Interstellar dust plays a central role in the evolution of galaxies by shaping star formation, altering observed stellar properties, and redistributing radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum. In the Milky Way, dust is concentrated in…

We review results from recent high resolution cosmological structure formation simulations, namely the Via Lactea I & II and GHALO projects. These simulations study the formation of Milky Way sized objects within a cosmological framework.…

We analyze the hierarchical structure in the Rosette Molecular Cloud (RMC) using $^{13}$CO J=1-0 data from the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting (MWISP) survey with a non-binary Dendrogram algorithm that allows multiple branches to emerge…

We present a new catalogue of spectrophotometric distances and line-of-sight systemic velocities to 103 HII regions between 90$^{\circ}\leq \ell \leq~$195$^{\circ}$ (longitude quadrants II and part of III). Two new velocities for each…

HI observations in the 21cm line have been a principal tool for investigating the large-scale structure of the Milky Way. This review considers what was learned in the first decade after the discovery of the 21cm line, and how that…

The census of star clusters in the inner Milky Way is incomplete because of extinction and crowding. We embarked on a program to expand the star cluster list in the direction of the inner Milky Way using deep stacks of Ks-band images from…

Small-area molecular structures (SAMS) resembling those clumpuscules, proposed by Pfenniger and Combes (1994) as candidate for baryonic dark matter, have recently been detected (Heithausen 2002, 2004) in an area where the shielding is too…

A sample of 4208 objects with magnitude 15 < g* < 22 and colors of main sequence A stars has been selected from 370 square degrees of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) commissioning observations. The data is from two long, narrow stripes,…

We present deep HI observations of three compact high-velocity clouds (CHVCs). The main goal is to study their diffuse warm gas and compact cold cores. We use both low- and high-resolution data obtained with the 100 m Effelsberg telescope…
