A Complete HCN Survey of the Perseus Molecular Cloud

We present a survey of the Perseus molecular cloud in the J = 1 → 0 transition of HCN, a widely used tracer of dense molecular gas. The survey was conducted with the CfA 1.2 m telescope, which at 89 GHz has a beamwidth of 11′ and a spectral resolution of 0.85 km s −1 . A total of 8.1 deg 2 was surve...
