Scientific paper

The authors report the discovery of formaldehyde H2CO in four out of 15 CO-clouds observed in high galactic latitudes. For one of these they present a velocity integrated formaldehyde map. The clouds are clearly connected to CO-clouds described by de Vries et al. (1986), to Lynds bright and dark nebulae (Lynds, 1963) and to the galactic infrared cirrus (Low et al., 1984). The distribution of CO and H2CO clouds is compared. The depths of the 110-11H2CO lines show no correlation to the integrated J = 1→0 12CO line intensities.
