Notes.

(a)

Collision rates from Wiesenfeld & Goldsmith (2014), Jaquet et al. (1992), Yang et al. (2010, at 50K). For optically thick lines the effective critical densities can be considerably lower due to radiative trapping.

(b)

Noise in individual spectra.

(c)

Noise in Nyquist-sampled map with GREAT beam full width at half maximum (FWHM).
