We mapped 807 GHz CO(7→6) emission in Orion along a strip extending from 0.7 pc west to 1.2 pc east of Ori θ1C, which lies in front of the Orion A molecular cloud. The similarity of the distribution of the CO(7→6) emission with 158 μm [C ii] line emission suggests that over the entire region mapped the narrow CO lines arise in warm photodissociation regions excited by the UV photons from Ori θ1C. The CO(7→6) lines east of θ1C split into two velocity components which persist over several arcminutes, indicating that at least one of the components arises from a dense, UV‐illuminated clump or filament within the molecular cloud and not at the cloud surface. |
