The AST/RO Survey of the Galactic Center Region

Abstract

AST/RO is a 1.7m diameter submillimeter-wave telescope at the geographic South Pole. A key AST/RO project is the mapping of CI and CO J = 4→3 and J = 7 → 6 emission from the inner Milky Way (Martin et al. 2003). These data are released for general use.
