A large scale survey of dense cores and molecular outflows in Ophiuchus

Extract
We have been surveying dense molecular cores in Ophiuchus region including ρ Oph, L234, and L43 with the 4m radio telescope at Nagoya University since 1985. We have already mapped ∼18° × 12° area with 2′ or 4′ grid spacing in 13CO (J=1-0) spectra. We have identified ∼50 dense cores (we call ”13CO cores”). Typical mass, density, and size of the 13CO cores are ∼20 M⊙, ∼3 × 103 cm−3, and ∼0.3 pc, respectively (Nozawa et al. 1990). We also surveyed molecular outflows in 12CO (J=1-0) spectra toward 13 IRAS point sources associated with 13CO cores in Ophiuchus. As a result of the survey, we have found 5 molecular outflows in the filamentary dark clouds and 5 regions exhibiting high velocity wings in the ρ Oph main body.
