We present the results of ALMA observations in $^{12}$CO($J=2-1$), $^{13}$CO($J=2-1$), and C$^{18}$O($J=2-1$) lines and 1.3 mm continuum emission toward a massive ($sim 10^6 M_{odot}$) giant molecular cloud associated with the giant H II region NGC 604 in one of the nearest spiral galaxy M33 at an angular resolution of 0.44 $times$ 0.27 (1.8 pc $times$ 1.1 pc). The $^{12}$CO and $^{13}$CO images show highly complicated molecular structures composed of a lot of filaments and shells whose lengths are 5 -- 20 pc. We found three 1.3 mm continuum sources as dense clumps at edges of two shells and also at an intersection of several filaments. We examined the velocity structures of $^{12}$CO($J=2-1$) emission in the shells and filaments containing dense clumps, and concluded that expansion of the H II regions cannot explain the formation of such dense cores. Alternatively, we suggest that cloud--cloud collisions induced by an external H I gas flow and the galactic rotation compressed the molecular material into dense filaments/shells as ongoing high-mass star formation sites. We propose that multiple gas converging/colliding events with a velocity of a few tens km s$^{-1}$ are necessary to build up NGC 604, the most significant cluster-forming complex in the Local Group of galaxies.
We report the first evidence for high-mass star formation triggered by collisions of molecular clouds in M33. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, we spatially resolved filamentary structures of giant molecular cloud 37 in M33 usin
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of $mathrm{^{13}CO(J=1-0)}$ line and 104 GHz continuum emission from NGC 604, a giant HII region (GHR) in the nearby spiral galaxy M33. Our high spatial resolution images ( 3

We present $^{12}$CO ($J$ = 2-1), $^{13}$CO ($J$ = 2-1), and C$^{18}$O ($J$ = 2-1) observations toward GMC-8, one of the most massive giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in M33 using ALMA with an angular resolution of 0.44 $times$ 0.27 ($sim$2 pc $times$ 1
We performed new comprehensive $^{13}$CO($J$=2--1) observations toward NGC 2024, the most active star forming region in Orion B, with an angular resolution of $sim$100 obtained with NANTEN2. We found that the associated cloud consists of two independ
