Notes. [1] Measurements are computed from PRIMOS observations in the velocity ranges listed in Greaves & Nyman (1996). [2–3] Values toward Sgr B2(M) from [2] Greaves & Nyman (1996) by conversion from H13CO+ and [3] Irvine et al. (1987) by conversion from 13CO. [4] Values toward Sgr B2(N) from Indriolo et al. (2015) from 21 cm Hi absorption. [5] Central extinction of the cloud, estimated by 2AV0 = AV = (NHI + 2NH2)/(2.2 × 1021 cm-2), from (Güver & Özel 2009).
