Scientific paper

Using (12)CO, we mapped the inner 50 pc of the Galaxy with 2.5 pc (1 min) resolution at lambda-2.6 mm, and mapped the inner 10 pc with 0.6 pc resolution (15 sec) at lambda-87. The primary goal of this work was to trace material at -190 km/sec, which we find to be widespread and to show no signs of any association with the actual Galactic center. However, an isolated, newly detected 11 K feature in the J = 3-2 line, seen 3 min from Sgr A* at -130 km/sec, might have been caused by interaction of the -190 km/sec feature with other foreground material.
