We mapped the ultra-high-velocity feature (the "Bullet") detected in the expanding molecular shell associated with the W44 supernova remnant using the Nobeyama Radio Observatory 45-m telescope and the ASTE 10-m telescope. The Bullet clearly…
We report detection of two compact absorption features surrounding the M87 nucleus and some extended absorption features perpendicular to the M87 jet using the Atacama Large millimeter-submillimeter-Array (ALMA) Band 3 data. One compact…
We present ALMA observations of the CO(1-0) and CO(3-2) line emission tracing filaments of cold molecular gas in the central galaxy of the cluster PKS0745-191. The total molecular gas mass of 4.6 +/- 0.3 x 10^9 solar masses, assuming a…
The high velocity dispersion compact cloud CO-0.30-0.07 is a peculiar molecular clump discovered in the central moleculr zone of the Milky Way, which is characterized by its extremely broad velocity emissions ($\sim 145\ \rm{km s^{-1}}$)…
We have mapped two molecular clouds at (l, b) = (3.2 degrees, + 0.3 degrees) and (l, b) = (5.4 degrees, -0.5 degrees) in 21-cm line and continuum emission. These clouds show unusually large velocity dispersions of more than 100 km/s (FWHM)…
In this paper, we report the discovery of an isolated, peculiar compact cloud with a steep velocity gradient at $2\farcm 6$ northwest of Sgr A*. This ``Tadpole'' molecular cloud is unique owing to its characteristic head-tail structure in…
A compact source, G0.02467-0.0727, was detected in ALMA \threemm observations in continuum and very broad line emission. The continuum emission has a spectral index $\alpha\approx3.3$, suggesting that the emission is from dust. The line…
This study developed an automated identification procedure for compact clouds with broad velocity widths in the spectral line data cubes of highly crowded regions. The procedure was applied to the CO J=3-2 line data, obtained using the…
We present 1"-resolution ALMA observations of the circumnuclear disk (CND) and the environment around SgrA*. The images unveil the presence of small spatial scale CO (J=3-2) molecular "cloudlets" within the central pc of the Milky Way,…
We have discovered an energetic high-velocity compact cloud CO$-$0.31+0.11 in the central molecular zone of our Galaxy. CO$-$0.31+0.11 is located at a projected distance of $\sim 45$ pc from the Galactic nucleus Sgr A$^*$. It is…
Observations of molecular gas near the Galactic centre ($| l | < 10^\circ$, $| b | < 1^\circ$) reveal the presence of a distinct population of enigmatic compact clouds which are characterised by extreme velocity dispersions ($\Delta v >…
We report the first evidence for high-mass star formation triggered by collisions of molecular clouds in M33. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, we spatially resolved filamentary structures of giant molecular cloud 37…
We present Submillimter Array 1.3 mm waveband continuum and molecular line observations of the HH 80-81 high-mass star-forming region. The dust continuum emission reveals two dominant peaks MM1 and MM2, and line emission from high-density…
We report the results of observations toward the center of the molecular cloud CO 0.02-0.02 made using the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array. The successfully obtained 1 arcsec resolution images of CO $J$=3-2, H$^{13}$CN $J$=4-3,…
We present new ALMA CO(2--1) observations of two well studied group-centered elliptical galaxies: NGC~4636 and NGC~5846. In addition, we include a revised analysis of Cycle 0 ALMA observations of the central galaxy in the NGC~5044 group…
The star-forming region N66, as a host of the majority of OB stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud, provides a unique opportunity to enhance our understanding of the triggers of high-mass star formation. We investigate the properties of the…
Green Bank Telescope (GBT) 21cm observations have revealed a faint, yet extensive HI cloud population surrounding the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). The newfound objects are likely analogs to the high-velocity HI clouds (HVCs) seen around the…
We report the discovery of a very dense jet-like fast molecular outflow surrounded by a wide-angle wind in a massive young stellar object (MYSO) G18.88MME (stellar mass $\sim$8 M$_{\odot}$) powering an Extended Green Object G18.89$-$0.47.…
An analysis of large-area CO J=3-2 maps from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope for 12 nearby spiral galaxies reveals low velocity dispersions in the molecular component of the interstellar medium. The three lowest luminosity galaxies show a…
Recent millimeter/sub-millimeter facilities have revealed the physical properties of filamentary molecular clouds in relation to high-mass star formation. A uniform survey of the nearest, face-on star-forming galaxy, the Large Magellanic…
