Description
We compare the CO (J=1-0) and HI emission in the Large Magellanic Cloud in three dimensions, i.e., including a velocity axis in addition to the two spatial axes, with the aim of elucidating the physical connection between giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and their surrounding HI gas. The CO(J=1-0) data set is from the second NANTEN CO survey (Fukui et al. 2008, Cat. J/ApJS/178/56) and the HI data set is from the merged Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) and Parkes Telescope surveys (Kim et al. 2003ApJS..148..473K).
