Notes. (a) The brightness temperatures TB were determined from resolution-matched (1′′) data cubes inside the same polygons of 1′′ size. (b) ∫ TB dv is the brightness temperature integrated over the 1′′ polygon. (c) peak TB is the peak brightness temperature of the spectrum integrated over the 1′′ polygon. (d) Obtained from a single Gaussian fit to the line.
