Our survey spans 150{deg} in Galactic longitude and reaches 1{deg} above and below the Galactic plane. The survey has a useful limiting magnitude of K=15 over most of the observed Galactic plane, and K=14 (due to severe crowding) within a few degrees of the Galactic center. Thousands of emission-line candidates have been detected. In spectrographic follow-ups of 146 relatively bright W-R star candidates, we have re-examined 11 previously known WC and WN stars and discovered 71 new W-R stars, 17 of type WN and 54 of type WC. Our latest image analysis pipeline now picks out W-R stars with a 57% success rate. Star subtype assignments have been confirmed with the K-band spectra and distances approximated using the method of spectroscopic parallax. Some of the new W-R stars are among the most distant known in our Galaxy. The distribution of these new W-R stars is beginning to trace the locations of massive stars along the distant spiral arms of the Milky Way.2012AJ....143..149Shttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/143/149CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/233 : The 2MASS Extended sources (IPAC/UMass, 2003-2006)I/297 : NOMAD Catalog (Zacharias+ 2005)III/215 : 7th Catalog of Galactic Wolf-Rayet stars (van der Hucht, 2001)III/143 : Spectrophotometry of Wolf-Rayet Stars (Torres-Dodgen+ 1988)J/ApJ/733/123 : The Wolf-Rayet content of M33 (NGC 598) (Neugent+, 2011)J/A+A/518/A29 : WR stars distribution in 2 nearby galaxies (Leloudas+, 2010)J/A+AS/108/669 : IUE spectra of WR stars (Niedzielski+, 1994)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/143/149https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/143/149http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/143/149https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/143/149https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/143/149http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/143/149GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/143/149/knownWR (Previously identified Wolf-Rayet stars)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/143/149/knownWR?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/143/149/knownWR?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/143/149/knownWR?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true243.6552083-51.44066670.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/AJ/143/149/newWR (New Wolf-Rayet stars)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/143/149/newWR?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/143/149/newWR?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/143/149/newWR?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true238.0395-54.28736110.0055555555555555566/28809 28825 28826 28903 28912 28915 29101 29114 29505 29510 29532 30218 30219 30222 30241 30244 30245 30258 30259 30262 30263 30265 30313 30319 30420 30594 30604 30623 30644 30690 30691 30692 30694 30715 41814 42159 42170 42214 42215 42216 42217 42225 42226 42227 42228 42379 42382 42391 42434 42440 42441 42444 42459 42497 42500 425128.650015785639275e-20 1.7003137259100215e-19https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/143/149?format=asciiOpticalInfrareddefaultJ/AJ/143/149/knownWRPreviously identified Wolf-Rayet starsNameWolf-Rayet star namemeta.id;meta.maincharrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
