14N/15N ratio of CN in 4 positions across L1544. Left panel: H2 column density map of L1544 computed from Herschel/SPIRE observations (Spezzano et al. 2016). The black crosses show the centre of the areas where the spectra shown in the right panel have been extracted. The black circles show the regions where the spectra shown in the right panel have been averaged. Right panel: spectra of 13CN (N, J, F1, F = 1 3/2 2 3-0 1/2 1 2) in black and C15N (N, J, F= 1 3/2 2-0 1/2 1) in red, extracted towards the offsets marked in the left panel. The values in boldface in blue report the 14N/15N ratio in CN for each set of spectra derived using the 12CN column density directly from the spectra shown in Fig. B.1. The values in boldface in green report the 14N/15N ratio computed from the column density of 13CN using the 12C/13C ratio of 68 (Milam et al. 2005).
