F. Casoli et al., A (CO)-C-12(1-0) SURVEY OF SPIRAL GALAXIES IN THE REGION OF THE COMA SUPERCLUSTER, Astronomy & Astrophysics. Supplement series, 116(2), 1996, pp. 193-202
We present observations of the (CO)-C-12(J=1-0) Line at 2.6 mm of 65 g
alaxies located in the Coma supercluster region: 33 actually belong to
the Coma supercluster while 32 are either foreground or background ob
jects. These data have been obtained using the NRAO 12 m telescope at
Kitt Peak (United States), and for four galaxies, using the IRAM 30 m
telescope at Pico Veleta (Spain). Out of these 65 galaxies, 54 had nev
er been observed in the CO(1-0) line; 49 have been detected by us, of
which 37 are new detections. We give molecular gas masses deduced from
the CO Line integrated intensities, and upper limits for the 16 undet
ected objects, computed with a Galactic conversion factor N(H-2)=2.3 1
0(20) I(CO) and H-0=75 km/s/Mpc.*
