Left: three-color map of the SgrE region. Red shows ¹²CO(J=3–2) emission integrated over −240 to −190 km s⁻¹, tracing the far dust-lane component; blue shows −185 to −50 km s⁻¹, tracing the main CMZ stream and the emission bridge observed in Fig. 10b; and green corresponds to the MeerKAT 1 GHz image, tracing the H II regions. The dashed line (AB) indicates the cut used to construct the LV diagram. Right: ¹²CO(J=3–2) LV diagram along the AB line, revealing a velocity bridge linking the far dust-lane gas with the CMZ stream, consistent with a site of cloud-cloud interaction.
