Notes. (a) Rest frequencies taken from the Cologne Database for Molecular Spectroscopy, CDMS (Müller et al. 2005; Endres et al. 2016). Original sources of spectroscopic data: C17O, Klapper et al. (2003); CO, Winnewisser et al. (1997); H13CN, Cazzoli & Puzzarini (2005); H2CO and H2 13CO, Cornet & Winnewisser (1980); C34S Gottlieb et al. (2003); SiO and 29SiO, Müller et al. (2013); C2H, Padovani et al. (2009). (b)Critical density is calculated as the ratio of the Einstein A coefficient and the collision rate at a temperature of 100 K, which are accessed through the LAMDA database (Schöier et al. 2005), with the following original sources: CO (adopting o-H2 as dominant collision partner), Yang et al. (2010); H13CN, Dumouchel et al. (2010) for main isotopologue; H2CO and adopting identical rates for H2 13CO, Wiesenfeld & Faure (2013); C34S adopting rates for the main isotopologue C32S, Lique et al. (2006); SiO and adopting identical rates for 29SiO, Dayou & Balança (2006); C2H, Spielfiedel et al. (2012). (c)source A and source B are abbreviated as “A” and “B”; “PA” denotes position angle east of north, following Fig. 1. (d) The hyperfine splitting of C17O 3–2 and H13CN 4–3 is discussed in Appendix A. (e)For 12C16O, we study morphological features using only velocity channels at | Vlsrvsystemic | > 5 km s−1, as shown in Fig. 4. (f) The rest frequency for C2H 47∕2 – 35∕2 is the average of the tabulated rest frequencies for the individual hyperfine components, F = 4–3 at 349.39928 GHz and F = 3–2 at 349.40067 GHz.
