Notes.
The density is not uniform in these regions. We indicate the representative density of the clumps/filaments.
It strongly depends on the position, varying between ~1 in the shielded core to ~50 in the HCO peak. The value in the table corresponds to the HCO peak derived from ~14″ angular resolution observations.
