Notes. 

(a)

Number in Fig. 12.

(b)

Masses estimated assuming the dust opacities of Ossenkopf & Henning (1994; see Sect. 6).

(c)

Masses from the literature (see Sect. 6).

(e)

The free-fall times tff have been estimated from the masses obtained assuming the dust opacities of Ossenkopf & Henning (1994). The uncertainty in tff/trot is  ~25%.

(f)

Mass estimated using β = 2 (Patel et al. 2005).

(g)

The mass of this core has been estimated from CS (Bernard et al. 1999) and is the value used to derive tff.

(h)

Mass estimated using β = 1.5 (Galván-Madrid et al. 2009).

(i)

Vrot is  ~3–4 km s-1 (Galván-Madrid et al. 2009).

(j)

Mass estimated assuming a hot core temperature of 100 K (Beuther et al. 2005).

(k)

R ranges from 0.055 to 0.068 pc depending on the observational wavelength (Furuya et al. 2008).
