Description

The Mopra Southern Galactic Plane CO Survey covers more than 200 square degrees of the galactic plane, from l=250 to +11 degrees between -1 < b < 1 degrees in the J = 1-0 line of the three most common CO isotopologues (12CO, 13CO and C18O). I will show preliminary results of our final data release, including position-velocity plots and a catalogue of molecular cloud clumps in C18O, which are some of the densest regions on the galactic plane, of particular interest to CTA scientists.
