Description
A map is presented of the CO J = 3-2 line emission from the cloud associated with V645 Cygni. Line wings extending to 15 km/s on either side of the central velocity can be attributed to a bipolar outflow over a region 1 arcmin in angular extent. The redshifted and blueshifted emission peaks are separated by 20 arcsecs along an axis that is approximately perpendicular to the polarization vector of the visible light. The outflow is of relatively low velocity, low mass, and low mechanical luminosity. 32 refs
