Abstract
Submillimetre HCO+(J = 4 − 3) mapping observations of the immediate environs of the infrared source IRS 7 in Corona Australis have provided corroborative evidence for the existence of the rotating molecular disk detailed in our earlier paper. An improved estimate of 0.8M ¯ for the mass of the central protostar is obtained. Accepted by A & A
