Search for HDCO in dark clouds
We have searched for the 1/sub 11/-1/sub 10/ transition of HDCO in the directions of several dark clouds. L 134, which exhibits significant enhancement of several deuterated molecules, was included in this search. Surprisingly, HDCO was not detected in any of the regions surveyed (L 134, L 43, NGC 2264 (offset), and DR 21 (OH)). The implications of these observations are discussed.
