- Abstract
We present the first results from a project to map Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) in the 12CO J=2-1, 13CO J=2-1, and 12CO J=3-2 lines using the Heinrich Hertz Submillimeter Telescope (HHT) at the University of Arizona. We mapped nearly 2.5 sq. deg of W3 and 1.0 sq. deg of W51 in the J=2-1 lines. We have begun mapping in the J=3-2 line. We achieve angular resolutions of 33″ and 24″ in the J=2-1 and J=3-2 lines with 1.3 and 0.9 km s−1 resolution.
