Trying to obtain a more complete picture of star forming regions in the Taurus Molecular Cloud, four newly discovered dense cores (L1521D, L1521F, L1524, L1507A) are identified and mapped through the ammonia (J,K)=(1,1) and (2,2) rotational…
Using the IRAM 30m telescope, we have detected the CO J=2-1, 4-3, 5-4, and 6-5 emission lines in the millimeter-bright, blank-field selected AGN COSMOS J100038+020822 at redshift z=1.8275. The sub-local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE)…
We present results from a spectroscopic program targeting 26 strong lensing cluster cores that were visually identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Second Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS-2). The 26 galaxy cluster lenses…
We present new results on CO depletion in a sample of nearby pre-stellar cores, based on observations of the millimeter C17O and C18O lines and the 1.3 mm dust emission with the IRAM 30m telescope. In most cases, the distribution of CO is…
We present here the first results from a high-resolution survey of the 12CO(J=1-0) emission across the northern part of the poorly-enriched Small Magellanic Cloud, made with the ATNF Mopra telescope. Three molecular complexes detected in…
We present 45"-47" angular resolution maps at 50" sampling of the 12CO and 13CO J=1-0 emission toward a 1.39 deg x 1.33 deg region in the W51 HII region complex. These data permit the spatial and kinematic separation of several spectral…
We report Arecibo 21 cm absorption-emission observations to characterise the physical properties of neutral hydrogen (HI) in the proximity of five giant molecular clouds (GMCs): Taurus, California, Rosette, Mon OB1, and NGC 2264. Strong HI…
We recently found extended CO(2-1) emission from cold molecular gas embedded in the network of Halpha filaments surrounding the galaxy NGC 1275 (Salome et al. 2006). We now present CO(2-1) interferometer maps of the eastern filaments, at…
The physical, chemical and kinetic characteristics of 12 northern infrared dark clouds (IRDCs) are systematic studied using the $\rm ^{13}CO $ (1-0) and $\rm C^{18}O$ (1-0) lines, observed with the PMO 13.7 m radio telescope, the 1.1 mm…
We have mapped the C I 3P1-3P0 line at 492 GHzin three molecular clouds immersed in weak ultraviolet radiation fields, TMC-1, L134N, and IC 5146. In all three clouds, the CI peak TA* ~ 1 K, with very small dispersion. The spatial C I…
We have recently detected CO lines in the well-known filaments around NGC 1275, the galaxy at the centre of the Perseus cluster of galaxies. These previous observations, with the HERA multi-beam array at the IRAM 30m telescope enabled us to…
We present an analysis of the systematic CO(2-1) survey at 12" resolution covering most of the local group spiral M 33 which, at a distance of 840 kpc, is close enough that individual giant molecular clouds (GMCs) can be identified. The…
We present the detections of CO line emission in the central galaxy of sixteen extreme cooling flow clusters using the IRAM 30m and the JCMT 15m. These detections of CO(1-0), CO(2-1), CO(3-2) and CO(4-3) are consistent with the presence of…
The Gould Belt Legacy Survey will map star-forming regions within 500 pc, using HARP (Heterodyne Array Receiver Programme), SCUBA-2 (Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array 2) and POL-2 (Polarimeter 2) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope…
Recent observations suggest that Tycho's supernova remnant (SNR; SN 1572) is expanding into a cavity wall of molecular clouds (MCs), which decelerate the SNR and influence its multi-wavelength morphology. To constrain the physical…
We report the results of molecular line observations toward the l=1.3 deg complex, ananomalous cloud complex in the central molecular zone of the Galaxy. We have taken high resolution maps of the CO J=1-0, HCN J=1-0, HCO+ J=1-0, SiO J=1-0…

We report new CO observations and a detailed molecular-line study of the mixed morphology (MM) supernova remnant (SNR) G359.1-0.5, which contains six OH (1720 MHz) masers along the radio shell, indicative of shock-cloud interaction.…

Context: The M16 nebula is a relatively nearby Hii region, powered by O stars from the open cluster NGC 6611, which borders to a Giant Molecular Cloud. Radiation from these hot stars has sculpted columns of dense obscuring material on a few…
