The small, thin diffuse and translucent molecular clouds are excellent laboratories for studying the ways in which small—scale structure and interstellar chemistry affect each other. Variations of density or column density and chemical stratification can be found on scales as small as 0.01 pc. The origin of such structures and the evolutionary states of small clouds remain elusive.
