Description

We observed 6 cm H2CO absorption over an extended region surrounding the globule in NGC 2264 and toward the globules B68, B72, B133, B134, B227, B238, and B335. The lines observed from the globules are similar to those seen in more extended dark clouds. It is inferred that physical conditions are similar in the two types of regions. Negative results for several other globules are reported
