The Astrophysical Journal, 1984 CO observations of the peculiar galaxy M82 have been made at 79 positions using the 14 m FCRAO telescope (HPBW = 50'') in order to obtain a fully sampled map of the central 2 kpc as well as the radial distribution of molecular gas out to 3 kpc along the major axis.

Turbulence in the interstellar medium [PDF]
, 2014 Turbulence is ubiquitous in the insterstellar medium and plays a major role in several processes such as the formation of dense structures and stars, the stability of molecular clouds, the amplification of magnetic fields, and the re-acceleration and ...

Chemistry of Molecular Clouds [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989 AbstractA discussion is presented of the chemistry of quiescent molecular clouds, and the effects of the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon molecules and of cosmic-ray induced ultraviolet photons are examined. A comparison is made with the chemistry occurring in molecular clouds that are subjected to shocks and the differences between ...

The structure of molecular clouds - II. Column density and mass distributions [PDF]
, 2010 The formation of stars is inextricably linked to the structure of their parental molecular clouds. Here we take a number of nearby giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and analyse their column density and mass distributions.

Giant Molecular Clouds in M31. I. Molecular Cloud Properties [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 We present Berkeley Illinois Maryland Association (BIMA) millimeter interferometer observations of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) along a spiral arm in M31. The observations consist of a survey using the compact configuration of the interferometer and follow-up, higher-resolution observations on a subset of the detections in the survey.

Submillimeter and Far-Infrared Polarimetric Observations of Magnetic Fields in Star-Forming Regions
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019 Observations of star-forming regions by the current and upcoming generation of submillimeter polarimeters will shed new light on the evolution of magnetic fields over the cloud-to-core size scales involved in the early stages of the star formation ...

Turbulence And Heating Of Molecular Clouds In The Galactic Center [PDF]
, 2014 Molecular gas temperatures in the Galactic Center have been shown to much higher than the gas temperatures of molecular clouds in the disk. These Galactic Center clouds also show large line widths characteristic of turbulence. However, the origin of this

Molecular Clouds in External Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985 Observations of the large-scale distribution of molecular clouds in external galaxies offer a unique opportunity for investigating galactic evolution. New generations of stars form in these dense regions, and the most massive of these stars recycle their processed interiors into the interstellar medium.

OBSERVATIONS OF NON TYPICAL MASERS AT THE RT-22 RADIO TELESCOPE IN 2004–2013
Radio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2017 Purpose: Some peculiarities of emission of Class I methanol masers on the 80–71A+ transition at 95 GHz in sources closely associated with protostar-forming regions and in supernova remnants are studied.
