3-d Mapping The Distribution Of R Coronae Borealis Stars

R Coronae Borealis stars are a rare, enigmatic class of variable stars. They are predominantly located near the Galactic Bulge and within the Magellanic Clouds. Utilizing new data from Gaia and spectra of these stars, we present a 3-D map of their distribution within the Milky Way, as well as their Galactic velocities so that we can further understand what population of the Milky Way they belong to.
