| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project intends to detect super star clusters (SSC) and intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) deeply embedded in the Galactic center region, based on large-scale surveys of the millimeter and sumillimeter-wave molecular line. During the three years project period, we succeeded to obtain huge data sets approximately as planned. Detailed mapping observations for the selected targets have unveiled two dozens of embedded SSCs and several candidates for IMBHs. In addition, we achieved a number of results: (1) revealing the chemical compositions in the Galactic circumnuclear disk, (2) discovery of the "pigtail" molecular cloud, (3) precise measurement of non dissociative shock in the W44 supernova remnant, and (4) understanding the formation process of the Tornado nebula.
