The Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey. III. Characterizing Physical Properties of Massive Star-forming Regions in the Gemini OB1 Molecular Cloud

As with the other Bolocam papers, I reduced the data. All of the analysis work was done by Miranda.

Because of Gem OB1's known distance (~2 kpc), it was possible to derive the physical properties of all of the 34 BGPS sources. NH₃ temperatures and line widths were combined to measure total dust mass, density, and virial parameter. This paper is the best characterization of "typical" BGPS sources, at least for the outer galaxy.
