Description
A survey of interstellar NaI D1 and D2 absorption features in the
spectra of 104 early-type stars in the second and third Galactic
quadrants reveals the large-scale kinematics of the interstellar gas
within the Galactic anticenter hemisphere at distances from the Sun
between ~70 and ~250pc. Employing a technique that uses both the radial
velocities and column densities of the NaI absorptions produced by the
intervening gas we have identified the velocity vectors and determined
the spatial distribution of eight interstellar clouds in the volume
explored.
