Scientific paper

We present new images of two squares degrees towards the Galactic Center at 1.1 millimeters obtained with Bolocam at the CSO as a part of the Bolocam Galactic Plane Survey. Emission at this wavelength is compared with additional images from SHARC 2 at 350 microns and SCUBA at 450 and 850 microns as well as archival data from MSX and 2MASS. Infrared dark clouds observed in the MSX and 2MASS images are seen to be associated with strong emission at 1.1 mm. Dust emission spectra of several of these giant molecular clouds derived from their submillimeter and millimeter fluxes are also presented. In addition, we examine the circumnuclear disk of Sgr A* in detail.
