An unbiased survey for high-velocity gas in the Monoceros OB1 molecular cloud

In order to make an unbiased survey for high-velocity gas in a single molecular cloud, a sensitive and uniformly sampled map of CO (J = 1-0) emission over a large fraction of the Mon OB1 (NGC 2264) molecular cloud was obtained. High-velocity line wings were detected on profiles over about 10 percent...

Zusammenfassung:In order to make an unbiased survey for high-velocity gas in a single molecular cloud, a sensitive and uniformly sampled map of CO (J = 1-0) emission over a large fraction of the Mon OB1 (NGC 2264) molecular cloud was obtained. High-velocity line wings were detected on profiles over about 10 percent of the region surveyed. Complete maps of the 12, 25, 60 and 100-micron far-infrared emission from the Mon OB1 cloud were constructed as well by coadding the appropriate IRAS survey fields.
