Abstract

We present observations of the first 10° of longitude in the Mopra CO survey of the southern Galactic plane, covering Galactic longitude l = 320-330° and latitude b = ±0.5°, and l = 327-330°, b = +0.5-1.0°. These data have been taken at 35-arcsec spatial resolution and 0.1 km s^-1 spectral resolution, providing an unprecedented view of the molecular clouds and gas of the southern Galactic plane in the 109-115 GHz J = 1-0 transitions of ¹²CO, ¹³CO, C¹⁸O, and C¹⁷O. Together with information about the noise statistics from the Mopra telescope, these data can be retrieved from the Mopra CO website and the CSIRO-ATNF data archive.
