We propose the follow-up observations toward the linearly aligned molecular clouds perpendicular to the galactic plane toward L ~ 348.5 degree, observed in 2007 season (M231), which may be formed by the jet from the compact star and the new candidates in 12CO(J=1-0), 13CO(J=1-0) and C18O(J=1-0) using Mopra. From NANTEN 12CO Galactic Plane Survey, we have discovered groups of linearly aligned molecular clouds, whose length is more than 150 pc, very far out from the galactic plane whose typical scale height is ~87 pc, perpendicular to the galactic plane. From comparing the molecular clouds with the HI, these are possible candidates of the molecular clouds formed by jets from compact stars. Through the observations, we would like to reveal detailed structures of the molecular clouds and nature of the interaction between the jet and an interstellar medium. This is a very important task to reveal one of the processes of the molecular cloud formation at high-z. In addition, we would like to establish the molecular clouds as a new probe for the jet, offering a new tool to search for the jet from the compact star.
