Notes. The dagger(†) marks the reference frequency corresponding to the reference velocity (υsys) for a given sightline. The spectroscopic information on these transitions is taken from Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) (https://spec.jpl.nasa.gov/) and the Cologne Database for Molecular Spectroscopy (CDMS) (https://cdms.astro.uni-koeln.de/) catalogs. The frequencies of H2S and c-C3H2 transitions correspond to that of their ortho spin state, and so the subsequently derived column densities and abundances for these species refer to ortho-H2S and ortho-c-C3H2 The upper energy levels of ortho-H2S and ortho-c-C3H2 listed in the table are relative to the ground state of the orhto species; without that, for ortho-H2S, Eu/k = 27.88 K and El/k = 19.78 K, and for ortho-c-C3H2, Eu/k = 6.45 K and El/k = 2.35 K.
