We present the 360° catalogue of physical properties of Hi-GAL compact sources, detected between 70 and 500 $\mu$m. This release not only completes the analogous catalogue previously produced by the Hi-GAL collaboration for −71° ≲ ℓ ≲ 67°, but also meaningfully improves it because of a new set of heliocentric distances, 120 808 in total. About a third of the 150 223 entries are located in the newly added portion of the Galactic plane. A first classification based on detection at 70 $\mu$m as a signature of ongoing star-forming activity distinguishes between protostellar sources (23 per cent of the total) and starless sources, with the latter further classified as gravitationally bound (pre-stellar) or unbound. The integral of the spectral energy distribution, including ancillary photometry from λ = 21 to 1100 $\mu$m, gives the source luminosity and other bolometric quantities, while a modified blackbody fitted to data for $\lambda \ge 160~\mu$m yields mass and temperature. All tabulated clump properties are then derived using photometry and heliocentric distance, where possible. Statistics of these quantities are discussed with respect to both source Galactic location and evolutionary stage. No strong differences in the distributions of evolutionary indicators are found between the inner and outer Galaxy. However, masses and densities in the inner Galaxy are on average significantly larger, resulting in a higher number of clumps that are candidates to host massive star formation. Median behaviour of distance-independent parameters tracing source evolutionary status is examined as a function of the Galactocentric radius, showing no clear evidence of correlation with spiral arm positions.

Hi-GAL 紧凑源目录 – II。团块物理特性的 360° 目录

我们展示了 Hi-GAL 致密源物理特性的 360° 目录,检测到 70 到 500 $\mu$m。此版本不仅完善了 Hi-GAL 合作之前为 -71° ≲ ℓ ≲ 67° 制作的类似目录,而且还因为一组新的日心距离(总共 120 808)而对其进行了有意义的改进。150 223 个条目中约有三分之一位于银河平面的新增部分。基于在 70 $\mu$m 处探测到的第一个分类,作为正在进行的恒星形成活动的标志,区分了原恒星源(占总数的 23%)和无星源,后者进一步分类为引力束缚(恒星前) ) 或未绑定。光谱能量分布的积分,包括从 λ = 21 到 1100 $\mu$m 的辅助光度法,给出源光度和其他辐射热量,而修改后的黑体适合 $\lambda \ge 160~\mu$m 的数据产生质量和温度。然后,在可能的情况下,使用光度法和日心距离导出所有列表的团块属性。这些数量的统计在源银河位置和演化阶段进行了讨论。内星系和外星系的演化指标分布没有明显差异。然而,内部星系的质量和密度平均要大得多,导致更多的团块可以作为大质量恒星形成的候选者。跟踪源进化状态的与距离无关的参数的中值行为被检查为银河中心半径的函数,
