| Abstract: | We report statistical properties of molecular clouds in the Galactic center region. We identified 65 molecular clumps in the region. We determined the velocity width-radius relation and the virial mass-LTE mass relation for the identified Galactic center clumps. We also determined the mass and size spectra for the Galactic center clumps. We consider whether the Galactic center molecular clumps is bound by the external pressure and/or the magnetic field. |
