Early Access to new ThrUMMS data products
Monday 28th April 2025

What is ThrUMMS?
The “Three-mm Ultimate Mopra Milkyway Survey” is a project to map multiple spectral lines in star-forming molecular clouds across a large swath of the Milky Way with the Mopra telescope (formerly part of ATNF), and perform numerous sophisticated analysis tasks on the data. The latest paper describing the project, and science results so far, is available at arXiv:2503.04887<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/xoZsCwV1vMfy02RkyIVf7cJkHOb?domain=arxiv.org>. Along with this paper, Data Release 6 is now available here<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/tTMfCxngwOfxmzQDxuvhZcyjvAh?domain=gemelli.spacescience.org> and will soon also be at the Infrared Science Archive (IRSA).

There are many downstream data products that have been, are being, or can be constructed from the line emission data. Many of these products will be made available to the community in the near future (~6–12 months), but some are available now for collaborative projects.

In order to gauge interest from the community and maximise the science output of Thr-UMMS, scientists desiring the above data and/or custom products for new investigations are invited to contact us for Early Access. They should, in the first instance, provide the general information indicated below, for a nominal target date of 31st May, 2025.

  *   Anticipated timeframe for completion...
  *   Brief project title/description...
