Abstract

We present fully-sampled maps of 461 GHz CO (4-3), 807 GHz CO (7-6), and 492 GHz [CI] (3P1-3P0) emission from the inner 3 degrees of the Galactic Center region taken with the Antarctic Submillimeter Telescope and Remote Observatory (AST/RO) in 2001--2002. The data cover -1.3 70K) at cloud edges to low values (<50K) in the interiors. Typical gas pressures in the Galactic Center gas are n(H_2) T_kin approx 10^5.2 K cm^-3. We also present an (l,b) map of molecular hydrogen column density derived from our LVG results.
