Abstract

We use the method of statistical parallaxes to construct the rotationcurve of the Milky Way spanning the Galactocentric distance intervalfrom 2 to 14 kpc based on observational data for young disk populationsand refine the distance scales of the objects belonging to young diskpopulations (classical Cepheids, young open clusters, blue supergiants,HII regions, and HI).
