Distances of molecular cloud

DOI

We have used a deep CO survey (at 115GHz) of the third galactic quadrant (May et al., 1993A&AS...99..105M) to derive the physical properties of molecular clouds in the outer Galaxy. Within the range of this survey, from 194{deg} to 270{deg} in galactic longitude, 177 molecular clouds have been identified beyond 2 kpc from the Sun. Distances have been determined kinematically using the rotation curve of Brand (1986, Ph.D. Thesis, University of Leiden) with R_{sun}=8.5kpc and {Theta}{sun}_=220km/s.
