| Research Abstract |
We found 14 separate ^<13>CO features with different radial velocities and locations toward the Orion Nebula. It is shown that these features are in dyanmically stable equillibrium and the mass of the features are small. It is suggested that HII expansion is not effective in triggering formation of massive stars, and that newly formed stars are less massive even if stars are formed.
