Event Information:

The present-day structure of the Milky Way is a constraint on theories
of Galactic formation and evolution. HII regions, the zones of ionized
gas surrounding recently formed high-mass stars, are common tracers of structure in both the Milky Way and other galaxies. Over the past 10
