Infrared Cirrus: Molecular Clouds

Scientific paper

High latitude dark and bright nebulae were already catalogued by Lynds and re-detected in the 100 μm band of IRAS. One of the clouds that form the Polar Loop was observed in the 110 - 111 transition of formaldehyde and in the J = 1 - 0 transitions of 12CO and 13CO at 115 GHz and 110 GHz resp. Since the infrared optical depth is small, the 100 μm intensity can be used as a measure of dust column density. It remains to be seen, if this transient nature is a general property of cirrus clouds.
