Masses of the structural components of the Vela C molecular cloud, separated by getsf in the surface density images with different angular resolutions.

Resolution Sources Filaments Background Total
(″) MS (Μ) MF (Μ) MB (M) MC (M)
8.5 6.3 × 103 3.0 × 104 5.3 × 104 9.0 × 104
11.7 2.2 × 103 2.5 × 104 4.6 × 104 7.3 × 104
18.2 2.4 × 103 2.6 × 104 4.4 × 104 7.2 × 104
24.9 7.2 × 104
36.3 7.2 × 104

Notes. The value of MS at 8.5″ is likely significantly overestimated because it includes the protostellar sources with strong temperature gradients. The values of MB and MC are given after subtracting the global background of the image (or 3.7 × 104 M), taken from the lower left corner of the image in Fig. 1.
