We have discovered large amounts of molecular gas, as traced by CO emission, in the ram pressure stripped gas tail of the Coma cluster galaxy D100 (GMP 2910), out to large distances of about 50 kpc. D100 has a 60 kpc long, strikingly narrow tail whic... Read More about Molecular gas dominated 50 kpc ram pressure stripped tail of the Coma galaxy D100.
