VizieR Online Data Catalog: CO obs. of molecular clouds in the MW midplane (Ma+, 2021)
Abstract
We have observed the 12CO, 13CO, and C18</S toward the Galactic plane, with a sky coverage of 15°x10°, from l=104.75° to l=119.75°, and b=-5.25° to b=5.25°. This observation is part of the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting (MWISP) project, which is an unbiased simultaneous survey of the J=1-0 transitional emission of the three isotopologues of carbon monoxide toward the Galactic plane, visible from the northern hemisphere. Detailed observational information, together with the data processing procedure for the MWISP project, have been comprehensively covered by Su+ (2019ApJS..240....9S). The observations were taken between 2012 March and 2018 October, using the Purple Mountain Observatory (PMO) 13.7m millimeter-wavelength telescope located at Delingha, China. The half-power beamwidth (HPBW) of the telescope is around 52" and 50" at 110GHz and 115GHz, respectively, and the pointing of the telescope has an accuracy of about 5" for all observational epochs.
