Scientific paper

The dense molecular cores comprising the dark Coalsack Neubula are of great interest in studies of early star formation. Although these cores demonstrate conditions appropriate for initial cloud collapse and protostellar formation, they appear anomalously quiescent. High precision, multiline mapping of the turbulent cores and resolution of the sub-structures making up the Coalsack is now possible with Mopra. The determination of temperature and density variations in this region afforded by the several CO transitions and other lines will enable effective modeling of the cooling, heating, dynamics and chemistry of these intriguing cores.
