摘要: New sensitive CO(2-1) observations of the 30 Doradus region in Large Magellanic Cloud are presented. We identify a chain three newly discovered molecular clouds we name KN1, KN2 and KN3 lying within 2--14 pc projection from young massive cluster R136 Doradus. Excited H$_2$ 2.12$\mu$m emission is spatially coincident with clouds, but ionized Br$\gamma$ not. interpret these as tails pillar-like structures whose heads pointing towards R136. Based on infrared photometry, new generation stars forming this structure.
