Notes. Comment: is the mean temperature in the shell between rstartrend and is the meanparticle density in that region. The sum of all molecules (X = H2CO or CH3OH) is denoted as N(X)total and is the mean ratio of the species [X] and hydrogen in the region. The column density Nc (X) is calculated (1) for the region between rstartrend, i.e., N(X)total divided by , and (2) as column density along the line of sight of the telescope main beam θmb = 25′′, i.e., at typical main beam diameters of APEX 12 m (242 GHz) and IRAM 30 m (97 GHz); see Fig. 3. The definition of the integration settings A, B, and C is given in Table 2. (a) For integration setting details see Table 2.
