To better understand the unusual, massive G216-2.5, a molecular cloud with no massive star formation, the distribution of its molecular gas is compared to that of the Rosette Molecular Cloud.\n  Far-infrared data from Herschel are used to derive $N(\\mathrm{H}_2)$ maps of each cloud and are combined with $I_{\\mathrm{CO}}$ data to determine the CO-to-H$_2$ ratio, $X_{\\mathrm{CO}}$. In addition, the probability distribution functions (PDFs) and cumulative mass fractions of the cl"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1503.02542","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
