The FUGIN CO survey with the Nobeyama 45-m Telescope revealed the 3D structure of a galactic shock wave in the tangential direction of the 4-kpc molecular arm. The shock front is located at G30.5+00.0+95 km/s on the up-stream (lower longitude) side of the star-forming complex W43 (G30.8-0.03), and composes a molecular bow shock (MBS) concave to W43, exhibiting an arc-shaped molecular ridge perpendicular to the galactic plane with width $sim 0^circ.1$ (10 pc) and vertical length $sim 1^circ (100 {rm pc})$. The MBS is coincident with the radio continuum bow of thermal origin, indicating association of ionized gas and similarity to a cometary bright-rimmed cloud. The up-stream edge of the bow is sharp with a growth width of $sim 0.5$ pc indicative of shock front property. The velocity width is $sim 10$ km/s, and the center velocity decreases by $sim 15$ kms from bottom to top of the bow. The total mass of molecular gas in MBS is estimated to be $sim 1.2times 10^6 <_odot$ and ionized gas $sim 2times 10^4 M_odot$. The vertical disk thickness increases step like at the MBS by $sim 2$ times from lower to upper longitude, which indicates hydraulic-jump in the gaseous disk. We argue that the MBS was formed by the galactic shock compression of an accelerated flow in the spiral-arm potential encountering the W43 molecular complex. A bow-shock theory can well reproduce the bow morphology. We argue that molecular bows are common in galactic shock waves not only in the Galaxy but also in galaxies, where MBS are associated with giant cometary HII regions. We also analyzed the HI data in the same region to obtain a map of HI optical depth and molecular fraction. We found a firm evidence of HI-to-H$_{2}$ transition in the galactic shock as revealed by a sharp molecular front at the MBS front.
The FOREST Unbiased Galactic plane Imaging survey with the Nobeyama 45-m telescope (FUGIN) project is one of the legacy projects using the new multi-beam FOREST receiver installed on the Nobeyama 45-m telescope. This project aims to investigate the d
We performed new large-scale $^{12}$CO, $^{13}$CO, and C$^{18}$O $J=$1--0 observations of the W43 giant molecular cloud complex in the tangential direction of the Scutum arm ($lsim {30^circ}$) as a part of the FUGIN project. The low-density gas trace
We present $^{12}$CO $J=$1--0, $^{13}$CO $J=$1--0 and C$^{18}$O $J=$1--0 images of the M17 giant molecular clouds obtained as part of FUGIN (FOREST Ultra-wide Galactic Plane Survey InNobeyama) project. The observations cover the entire area of M17 SW
M16, the Eagle Nebula, is an outstanding HII region which exhibits extensive high-mass star formation and hosts remarkable pillars. We herein obtained new $^{12}$CO $J=$1-0 data for the region observed with NANTEN2, which were combined with the $^{1
We present maps of a large number of dense molecular gas tracers across the Central Molecular Zone of our Galaxy. The data were taken with the CSIRO/CASS Mopra telescope in Large Projects in the 1.3cm, 7mm, and 3mm wavelength regimes. Here, we focus
