Scientific paper

The H2O southern galactic Plane Survey (HOPS) is not just a survey for water masers. It is an unbiased survey to be undertaken with the Mopra radiotelescope which will cover all frequencies from 19.5 to 27.5GHz, including water masers, class I and II methanol masers, thermal methanol, ammonia (both thermal and masing), as well as a number of other bright lines. Such a survey will complement others in the infrared (eg. Spitzer) and sub-mm (eg. APEX), as well as the CO survey conducted by NANTEN. The results of HOPS will give us a better understanding of the relationship between different maser species, as well as a more complete picture of star formation throughout the southern Galaxy. In this pilot survey, we intend to map two regions of the Galactic plane (one square degree each) to better understand what might be expected from the full survey, which is anticipated to cover 180 square degrees of sky.
