SKY DISTRIBUTION OF ARTIFICIAL SOURCES IN THE GALACTIC BELT OF ADVANCED COSMIC LIFE

In line with the concept of the galactic belt of advanced life, we eva luate the sky distribution of detectable artificial sources, using a s imple astrophysical model. The best region to search is the median ban d of the Milky Way in the Vulpecula-Cygnus region, together with a nar rower one in Carina. Although this work was done in view of a proposal to send a SETI probe at a gravitational focus of the Sun, we recommen d these sky regions particularly for the searches of the sky survey ty pe.
