CO and IRAS observations of the Chamaeleon molecular clouds
We present an extensive survey of the CO emission from the conspicuous complex of dark nebulae in Chamaeleon. The CO observations together with IRAS, extinction and H I data are used to study the distribution of interstellar matter in the complex. The comparison of the cloud 100μm emission with AV shows that the far-infrared brightness traces the gas over most of the surface of the complex, spe...
متن کاملDiiuse Molecular Clouds and the Molecular Interstellar Medium from 13 Co Observations of M33
We have obtained 12 CO and 13 CO J=1-0 observations of the nearby spiral galaxy M33 to try to resolve the long-standing discrepancy between 12 CO/ 13 CO line ratios measured in Galactic giant molecular clouds and external galaxies. Interferometer maps of the molecular cloud MC20 give a 12 CO/ 13 CO line ratio of 7:52:1, which agrees reasonably well with the line ratio measured in Galactic giant...
متن کاملShocked gas layers surrounding the WR nebula NGC 2359
NGC 2359 is a Wolf-Rayet (W-R) nebula partially bound by a rather dense and warm molecular cloud. We present the results derived from CO and 13 CO fully sampled maps of the molecular material with angular resolutions up to 12 ′′. We have detected three different velocity components, and determined their spatial distribution and physical properties. The kinematics, morphology, mass and density a...
متن کاملObservations of CO in the eastern filaments of NGC 1275
We recently found extended CO(2–1) emission from cold molecular gas embedded in the network of Hα filaments surrounding the galaxy NGC 1275 (Salome et al. 2006). We now present CO(2–1) interferometer maps of the eastern filaments, at high spatial and spectral resolutions. The cold molecular gas is detected by the Plateau de Bure Interferometer along the eastern filaments over an extent of 15′′,...
متن کاملGiant Molecular Clouds in the Dwarf Galaxy NGC 1569
We present CO 1→0 and 2→1 observations of the dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 1569 with the IRAM interferometer on Plateau de Bure. We find the CO emission is not spatially associated with the two super star clusters in the galaxy, but rather is found in the vicinity of an HII region. With the resolution of our data, we can resolve the CO emission into five distinct giant molecular clouds, four are ...
