CO TO H2 RATIO OF INTERSTELLAR MOLECULAR CLOUDS IN THE DIRECTIONS OF EARLY TYPE STARS [PDF]
We present measurements of interstellar CO absorption lines in the spectra of 7 early-type stars that were observed with the FUSE(Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer).

The Molecular Clouds in a Section of the Third Galactic Quadrant: Cloud Catalog
We present results of cloud catalogs of ^12 CO, ^13 CO, and C ^18 O ( J = 1–0) in a section of the third Galactic quadrant over (195° < l < 220°, ∣ b ∣ < 5°) from the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting project.

The formation of molecular clouds [PDF]
In a recent paper, Elmegreen (2000) has made a cogent case, from an observational point of view, that the lifetimes of molecular clouds are comparable to their dynamical timescales. If so, this has important implications for the mechanisms by which molecular clouds form.

Photometry and kinematics of extragalactic star-forming complexes
We investigate spectral and photometric properties of extragalactic star-forming complexes (SFCs). The SFCs were selected in 17 nearby galaxies of a spiral or irregular type, having inclinations less than 45° and distances less than 15 Mpc.

On the structure of molecular clouds [PDF]
We show that the inter-cloud Larson scaling relation between mean volume density and size $ \propto R^{-1}$, which in turn implies that mass $M\propto R^2$, or that the column density $N$ is constant, is an artifact of the observational methods used.

Molecular line signatures of cloud–cloud collisions [PDF]
ABSTRACT Collisions between interstellar gas clouds are potentially an important mechanism for triggering star formation. This is because they are able to rapidly generate large masses of dense gas. Observationally, cloud collisions are often identified in position–velocity (PV) space through bridging features between intensity peaks ...

Study the Effect of Perturbation in the Evolution of the Filamentary Molecular Clouds [PDF]
Observatory studies indicate that stars are caused by the collapse of dense molecular clouds, and thermal instability can be a factor in creating this collapse.
