Maser Investigation toward Off-Plane Stars (MIOPS): Detection of SiO Masers in the Galactic Thick Disk and Halo

Studying stars that are located off the Galactic plane is important for understanding the formation history of the Milky Way. We searched for SiO masers toward off-plane O-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars from the catalog presented by Mauron et al. in order to shed light on the origins of th...
