Emission profiles for CO and C⁰ (top) and dust and H₂ (bottom) for NGC 7023 NW (left) and NGC 7023 E (right) along the cuts shown in Fig. 6, as a function of the distance from the star in arcsec. We use the HR data for this plot, so that the beam size is not constant with wavelength, which affects the width of the emission profiles. Angular resolutions are ~ 1′′ for H₂ 1−0 S(1), ~ 10′′ for H₂ 0−0 S(1), between ~≤17–40′′ for CO lines and dust emission, ~ 40′′ for C⁰ 609 μm, and 11” for the dust emission at 1.2 mm (IRAM-30 m data).
