We study the interaction of a dense giant molecular cloud with the HII region Sagittarius C, and a prominent nonthermal filament (NTF). For this purpose, we mapped the CS(2→1) and (3→2) transitions simultaneously with the IRAM 30m radio telescope, using the on-the-fly observing mode, and covering a 20pc×37pc (8′ × 15′) region. The high spatial resolution, 0.7pc (16″) at 147 GHz, allows for the first time to analyze in detail the morphology and kinematics of the molecular material and its relation to the ionized gas.
