The spiral structure of our Milky Way Galaxy is not yet known. HII regions and giant molecular clouds are the most prominent tracers. We collected tracer data from literature, namely, (GMCs). With weighting factors based on excitation parameters or masses GMCs, we fitted distribution these tracers with models two, three, four spiral-arms polynomial arms. distances tracers, if available stellar direct measurements, were estimated kinetically standard rotation curve Brand & Blitz (1993)...

ABSTRACT We reanalyse the recent compilation of distance measurements to M87 by collecting data from published literature. Different traditional statistical methods, based on principle minimum information loss, we use a robust most frequent value (MFV) procedure estimate M87, irrespective Gaussian or non-Gaussian distributions. The MFV-based for modulus is given $31.09^{+0.04}_{-0.03}$ (statistical) $^{+0.05}_{-0.07}$ (systematic) mag corresponding 68.27 per cent confidence interval, whereas...
