Notes.

^(a)

Synthetic beam of compact configuration.

^(b)

Synthetic beam of extended configuration.

^(c)

Synthetic beam of compact+extended configuration, combined with the “natural weighting”.

^(d)

1σ rms measured from the continuum map of each source.

^(e)

1σ rms measured from the primary beam averaged spectrum of each source, which is converted into brightness temperature.
