Discovery of molecular and atomic clouds associated with the gamma-ray supernova remnant Kesteven 79

M. Kuriki, H. Sano, N. Kuno +21

We carried out CO( = 1-0) observations of the Galactic gamma-ray supernova remnant (SNR) Kesteven 79 using the Nobeyama Radio Observatory 45 m radio telescope, which has…

Massive star formation in W51A triggered by cloud-cloud collisions

Shinji Fujita, Kazufumi Torii, Nario Kuno +18

W51A is one of the most active star-forming region in our Galaxy, which contains giant molecular clouds with a total mass of 10^6 Msun. The molecular clouds have multiple velocity…

Detailed CO ( = 1--0, 2--1 and 3--2) observations toward an H{\sc ii} region RCW~32 in the Vela Molecular Ridge

Rei Enokiya, Hidetoshi Sano, Katsuhiro Hayashi +9

We made CO ( = 1--0, 2--1, and 3--2) observations toward an H{\sc ii} region RCW~32 in the Vela Molecular Ridge. The CO gas distribution associated with the H{\sc ii} region was…

Large-scale CO J=1-0 observations of the giant molecular cloud associated with the infrared ring N35 with the Nobeyama 45-m telescope

Kazufumi Torii, Shinji Fujita, Mitsuhiro Matsuo +14

We report an observational study of the giant molecular cloud (GMC) associated with the Galactic infrared ring-like structure N35 and two nearby HII regions G024.392+00.072 (HII re…

Molecular and Atomic Clouds toward the Wolf-Rayet Nebula NGC 2359: Possible Evidence for Isolated High-Mass Star Formation Triggered by a Cloud-Cloud Collision

Hidetoshi Sano, Katsuhiro Hayashi, Rei Enokiya +17

NGC 2359 is an HII region located in the outer Galaxy that contains the isolated Wolf-Rayet (WR) star HD 56925. We present millimeter/submillimeter observations of CO( =…
