Between November 18-26, 1988 we used the 15-m SEST to observe 12CO(1-0), 13CO(1-0), C18O(1-0) and CS(2-1) towards seven sources. Towards one source we observed only 12CO(1-0) and 13CO(1-0) and towards one other source only CS(2-1) was observed.
We used a Schottky
receiver in combination with a high-resolution AOS (channel width 43.3 kHz). We
used frequency switching with an offset of 15 or 20 MHz, depending on the line
width. Maps in 12CO covering the outflow region were made
on a raster with spacing of 20
near the IRAS source, and 40
in
the outer parts of the map.
Due to time constraints we have 13CO data at only
nine positions on a 40
raster for each source,
centered on the IRAS PSC position. C18O and CS were traced on
a 20
raster until the emission vanished in the noise.
A low-order polynomial baseline was subtracted from the spectra before
folding. The pointing was regularly checked on SiO masers; its rms
uncertainty is 7
.
The observed
sources are listed in Table 1. It gives the source name in
Col. 1; the position in equatorial and galactic coordinates in Cols. 2-5.
The velocity of the main component is in Col. 6.
In Cols. 7 and 8 are
the kinematic distance (except for two sources for which a photometric distance
is known) and bolometric luminosity (from WB89). Associated
sources are shown in Col. 9. The observed transitions and frequencies are
given in
Cols. 1 and 2 of Table 2. The beam size of the SEST (Col. 3)
is between 46
at 115 GHz and 54
at 98 GHz. In Col. 4 we give
the rms noise level in the spectra.
All intensities in this paper are on the
scale. When deriving
cloud masses and outflow parameters, we corrected for the main beam efficiency
of the SEST (0.70 at all frequencies observed here).
