Molecular Clouds at the Edge of the Galaxy II. Physical properties and scaling relations
New CO(2-1) observations of 112 clumps in outer Galactic clouds (14-23 kpc) yield velocity dispersion-size and mass-size power laws plus a declining virial parameter trend indicating most clumps are gravitationally unbound.
