Notes.The first four rows show the results for N1 = 13.0 and the last four rows for N2 = 13.5. Simulated spectra with peak gas velocities from vp = 05  km   s-1 to vp = 20  km   s-1 were fitted with up to four components. Results are averaged over 100 fits with random noise. Errors represent the spread of the values.
