Scientific paper

Centaurus A (NGC 5128) is a peculiar elliptical galaxy with a prominent dust lane. At a distance of about 3 Mpc (The Messenger No. 44, p. 1) it is the closest radio galaxy, and to date it has been observed in almost every accessible wavelength band. Here we report on recent measurements with the SEST telescope which have contributed to our understanding of the molecular interstellar medium in this spectacular object.
