Description This dataset contains model parameters for the ``tenuous connections" bridging major star-forming regions along the Radcliffe Wave.



For each model parameter, we report the 16th, 50th, and 84th percentile of the samples from our dynesty chain, which should be regarded as the statistical uncertainties. An additional systematic uncertainty of 5% is expected. The column headings are as follows:



'name' is the cloud coincident with the sightline. Since these regions are virtually unstudied, we assign them a name based on their Galactic coordinates

'l' is the Galactic longitude of the sightline (in degrees)

'b' is the Galactic latitude of the sightline (in degrees)

'n' is the normalization parameter

'f' is the foreground extinction parameter (in mag)

'm' is the cloud distance modulus parameter (in mag)

'd' is the cloud distance (derived from m) in pc

'p' is the outlier fraction parameter

'sfore' is the foreground smoothing parameter

'sback' is the background smoothing parameter



See Section 3.2 for a complete description of the model parameters.
