Galactic Edge Clouds. I. Molecular Line Observations and Chemical Modeling of Edge Cloud 2

Edge Cloud 2 (EC2) is a molecular cloud, about 35 pc in size, with one of the largest galactocentric distances known to exist in the Milky Way. We present observations of a peak CO emission region in the cloud and use these to determine its physical characteristics. We calculate a gas temperature of...
