Figure 6: a) Best possible fit with a spherical model to the HCO+ J= 4-3 line. b) The best fit to the same line where the flattening f and the inclination i are kept as free parameters. Below, the residuals are shown with the mean and two standard deviations indicated. |

Figure 7: a) Interferometer map in HCO+ J= 1-0; b) the corresponding synthesised map based on our best model; c) and d) models with f=1 and f=8 respectively. The white contour lines show the integrated intensity, starting at 0.25 Jy bm-1 and increasing in steps of 0.5 Jy bm-1. The colour scale shows the velocity centroid in units of km s-1. |
