Table 3: Column densities towards the \ensuremath {{\rm HN^{13}C}} maximum derived using the LTE method. The assumed value for $T_{\rm ex}$ is 5.2+1.0-0.6 K.   a The intensity value is for the weakest hyperfine component F=0-1 which comprises one ninth of the total intensity of the J=1-0 line.

b A column density estimate is not given because
of the obvious large optical thickness.
