Estimating the Vertical Disk Scale Height Using Young Galactic Objects

We compiled published data on young Galactic objects such as masers with VLBI-measured trigonometric parallaxes, OB associations, H II regions and Cepheids. We have recently established that the vertical disk scale height is strongly influenced by objects of the Local arm. In this study we use sampl...
