The dense core of the W49A molecular cloud (Miyawaki et al. 1986, Schloerb et al. 1987) has been mapped in 5 different transitions of CS and C34S, in order to determine its density structure. The three lower frequency transitions (CS J=3-2, CS J=5-4 and C34S J=5-4) were observed with the IRAM 30m telescope, and the two highest frequency transitions (CS J=7-6 and C34S J=7-6) with the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory. The beamsizes were in the range 12″ to 20″. As a calibration check, the CS J=7-6 line was observed with both telescopes, and was found to give a consistent temperature scale. The spectra at the peak of the emission are shown in Fig. 1.

About a dozen distinct dense cores have been identified in the Rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud. The properties of these cores are summarized and compared to the properties of cores in the Taurus molecular cloud, a less efficient region of star formation, and in DR21(OH), a more massive region of star formation. The data are consistent with a picture in which more massive clouds have a higher surface density of cores, which in turn are more massive. The adjacent cores in L1689N have been studied with very high resolution; one has formed stars and one never has. The structure of these cores shows a tendency for duplicity of structures from the largest scales (1 pc) to the smallest (50 AU).

A high-spatial-resolution observation of the NGC 7538 molecular cloud core has been performed with the Nobeyama Millimeter Array. We report on the detailed structure of the region including IRS1-3 complex and IRS11 based on the CS J = 1−0 line observational results.The observation was done in December, 1988. The field center was at R.A. (1950)=23h11m36.8s, Dec (1950)=61° 11′ 10″ which is between IRS1-3 complex and IRS11. The primary beam, 2.5’(FWHM), was large enough to cover both IRS1-3 complex and IRS11. We used 18 baselines, and the synthesized beam became 10.6″×10.4″ (natural weight).

Deep CCD imaging of the Serpens bipolar nebula shows it to be surrounded by molecular cloud material having spiral density structure. Polarization mapping indicates that the magnetic field in this material also exhibits spiral structure and we interpret this as the remains of the magnetically-braked collapse of a protostellar cloud. A binary star system has formed in the cloud core.
