Notes. Column description: Line name; rest frequency; effective excitation density from Shirley (2015) at TK = 20 K ((†) CO lines are not included, so we quote a reasonable guess); native angular resolution of the data products; RMS noise per channel at the phase centre of each convolved and reprojected cubes (6″ × 10 km s−1); telescope; and reference (see Sect. 3.1.2 for details).
