Extract

The 4-m radio telescope of the CSIRO Division of Radiophysics at Epping is being used to survey the line emission associated with the 1→0 transition of CO (rest frequency 115.271 GHz) in the southern Milky Way. The programme includes mapping the CO distribution across giant molecular-cloud/HII-region complexes. As a first stage the emission has been observed towards bright southern HII regions. These results will not only serve as a basis for future extensive mapping but will also provide data which is directly comparable with observations of other molecular lines that have been made towards the HII regions.
