M. Rubio et al., RESULTS OF THE ESO-SEST KEY PROGRAM - CO IN THE MAGELLANIC CLOUDS .5.FURTHER CO OBSERVATIONS OF THE SMALL MAGELLANIC CLOUD, Astronomy & Astrophysics. Supplement series, 118(2), 1996, pp. 263-275
We present further results of fully-sampled observations in the J=1-->
0 and J=2-->1 rotational transitions of (CO)-C-12 and (CO)-C-13, Obtai
ned with the SEST telescope at 43 '' or 22 '' resolution, toward the S
mall Magellanic Cloud. These observations concern six molecular clouds
with a variety of physical conditions. Maps in the (CO)-C-12(1-->0),
(CO)-C-12(2-->1), and in some cases of (CO)-C-13(1-->0) lines are pres
ented, as well as profiles of the four lines at the peak positions con
volved to the same angular resolution of 43 ''. The line ratio results
are interpreted in Paper TV of this series (Lequeux et al. 1994).
