• TRIGONOMETRIC PARALLAXES OF MASSIVE STAR-FORMING REGIONS. VI. GALACTIC STRUCTURE, FUNDAMENTAL PARAMETERS, AND NONCIRCULAR MOTIONS (2009, background): “Indeed, we do not really know the number of spiral arms (Simonson 1976; Cohen et al. 1980; Bash 1981; Vallée 1995; Drimmel 2000; Russeil 2003) or how tightly wound is their pattern.”
• Triggered massive-star formation on the borders of Galactic H II regions I. A search for "collect and collapse" candidates (2004, neutral): “Dutra 45 – Gal 284.0-0.9 is located at 4.5 kpc (Russeil 2003).”
• Gaia-2MASS 3D maps of Galactic interstellar dust within 3 kpc (2019, background): “– Fig 15 shows the projections onto the Plane of the HII regions from the Russeil (2003) and Hou & Han (2014) catalogs.”
• The 6-GHz methanol multibeam maser catalogue – I. Galactic Centre region, longitudes 345° to 6° (2010, background): “So we provisionally regard it as an object with R 3 kpc, as was assumed by Russeil (2003).”

• Outer structure of the Galactic warp and flare: explaining the Canis Major over-density (2006, background): “Indeed, the drop in 2MASS and DIRBE traces the presence of the Orion-Cygnus segment (called Local Arm in Russeil 2003).”

• Pulsar Rotation Measures and the Large-Scale Structure of the Galactic Magnetic Field (2006, methodology): “…clouds, HII regions and star-formation complexes (Grabelsky et al. 1988; Solomon & Rivolo 1989; Bronfman et al. 1989; Dame et al. 2001; Georgelin & Georgelin 1976; Downes et al. 1980; Caswell & Haynes 1987; Russeil 2003) we have adopted locations for the major spiral arms as shown in Figure 1.”
• Models for Interstellar Extinction in the Galaxy (2005, background): “Theoretical and observational justifications for a model with two+four arms, in which the two arms and four arms have different pitch angles, are discussed by Lépine et al. (2001), while Vallée (2002) and Russeil (2003) argue in favor of a four-arm structure.”

• A Study of Cygnus OB2: Pointing the Way toward Finding Our Galaxy’s Super-Star Clusters (2003, background): “An accurate census of our Galaxy’s massive star content is essential to understanding its evolution and structure (see Russeil 2003).”
• The RMS survey : Galactic distribution of massive star formation (2013, background): “…that the more reliable maser parallax and spectrophotometric distances are available for many of the complexes, and for the others, the higher number of associated RMS sources is likely to provide a better estimate of their systemic radial velocities and thus kinematic distances (cf. Russeil 2003).”
• The INT photometric H-alpha survey of the northern galactic plane (2005, background): “For example, the recent study of Galactic spiral structure by Russeil (2003) reaches only to ∼ 6 kpc, outward from the Sun.”
• The observed spiral structure of the Milky Way (2014, methodology): “…Bobylev 2010), extended low density warm ionized medium (Cersosimo et al. 2009), 2MASS infrared stars (Reylé et al. 2009), young open clusters (Vázquez et al. 2008), molecular gas (Nakagawa et al. 2005), Galactic HII regions (Paladini et al. 2004), and also star forming complexes (Russeil 2003).”
