Abstract

New CO and CS line observations of the RN043 and B335 molecular outflow regions, obtained at the Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory, reveal that RN043 and B335 are single highly collimated bipolar flows oriented nearly in the plane of the sky. Our results imply that the high velocity molecular gas in these flows has a non-zero expansion velocity perpendicular to the flow axis, and that the flow in B335 must be driven by a mostly non-molecular wind component.
