The column ``average'' contains the ratio values averaged over the northern part of Cas A and their observed scatter, and other columns contain data for the Hurford & Fesen (1996) FMKs.
Notes: the table contains data for the strongest lines only. The regions are numbered as in Hurford & Fesen (1996) with their positions shown in Fig. 7. The ``average'' column assumes single optical line reddening correction of 200 times. Note that the pixel sizes are different for the IRS LL (5 $.\!\!^{\prime\prime}$08 or $6.06 \times 10^{-10}$ sr, $\lambda > 15$ $\mu $m) and SL (1 $.\!\!^{\prime\prime}$85 or $8.04 \times 10^{-11}$ sr, $\lambda < 15$ $\mu $m) modules.
