Notes. Forthe integrated flux density and other information on the H42α line, see Bendo et al. (2016). (a)Approximate flux densities for the blue- and redshifted line peaks, obtained from the 15 m SEST (Wang et al. 2004) and ALMA. Uncertainties in the ALMA data are ≈5–10 mJy from the noise level and 10% of the flux density from the calibration, while differences in the chosen area (≫10 arcsec) do not lead to significant changes. For the SEST, rms uncertainties are of order 40 mJy (c-C3 H2), 12 mJy (H13 CN/HC15N), 150 mJy (HCN), and 100 mJy (CS). As indicated by a question mark, the SEST detected HC15 N only tentatively. HCO provides a quartet of hyperfine components among which the strongest feature is seen by ALMA. (b) From Gaussian fits (see Wang et al. 2004 for the SEST data). (c)For the weak lines, it is not clear whether absorption is not observed because of a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) that is too low or whether it is truly absent. In the case of HC15N, which has two more abundant isotopologues showing weak absorption in a specific velocity interval and because HC15 N is not seen within exactly this velocity range, absorption is likely present.
