Title: A cluster of outflows in the Vulpecula Rift Authors: J.C. Mottram, C.M. Brunt We present ^{12} CO, ^{13} CO and C^{18} O (J=3-2) observations of a new cluster of outflows in the Vulpecula Rift with HARP-B on the JCMT. The mass associated with the outflows, measured using the ^{12} CO HARP-B obs...
