A map of the C18O J=1-0 distribution of parts of the cloud is also shown. Description: Between September 19 and October 5, 1987 we used the 15-m Swedish-ESO Submillimeter Telescope (SEST) to map C18O(1-0) towards a part of the ρ Oph cloud. Between January 26 and 31, 1999 we used two SIS receivers at the SEST to observe 12CO, 13CO, C18O, and C17O J=1-0 and 2-1 towards 21 positions in the ρ Oph cloud. On July 14, 2001, we observed C17O(3-2) towards eight of the 21 positions with the 15-m James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) using frequency switching. File Summary:
