Notes.

(1)

Average molecular column densities in a disk with a diameter of 1.4. It is calculated with the expression N = Nc × (D(″) / 1.4″)2 + Nex, where Nc and D are the column density and size (diameter) of the compact component, respectively, and Nex is the column density of the beam filling component as shown in Table 3.

(2)

Average molecular column densities considering a region of 15 of diameter towards Orion KL. We assume a beam filling factor of 0.44 for the hot core component (size = 10).

(3)

References for the Orion column densities.

(4)

Derived from the 13C isotopologues assuming 12C/13C = 65 for FIRS 2 and 12C/13C = 50 for Orion.
