Images of the dark cloud L43 and the associated young star RNO 91 in the red continuum and in millimeter wavelength lines reveal a dense core being disrupted by the action of a molecular outflow. CCD images reveal a bay around RNO 91 delineated by higher surface luminosity within and reflection nebulosity along its borders. RNO 91 lies near the closed end of this bay. The blueshifted lobe of the molecular outflow is coincident with the bay in projection, while the complex of RNO 91, the bay, and the outflow lie somewhat removed from the peak of the dense molecular core. This morphological evidence for interaction between the outflow and the cloud is reinforced by analysis of the kinematics of the region. These data show that outflows can be sufficiently coupled to the dense cores in which they form so as to substantially alter their structure.
