Comparison of peak intensities of lines observed by both Herschel (3.5 m) and JCMT (15 m).

Line transition Measured Tmb (K) Tmb ratio Inferred θs

JCMT Herschel (′′)

CO 7–6 88 ± 44 22 ± 2 4 ± 2  ≳10
HCN 9–8 9 ± 4.5 0.32 ± 0.03 28  ≪1
HCN (ν2 = 1) 9–8 4 ± 2  <0.2  >10  <3

Notes. JCMT intensities are taken from Boonman et al. (2001), Herschel intensities are from this work. The HCN (ν2 = 1) 9–8 upper limit for Herschel is derived from the ~0.1 K 1-σ noise level near 797.3 GHz in our spectrum. The inferred size of the emission region, θs, is calculated using Eq. (1).
