Notes. Values are derived from synthetic spectrum fitting with CASSIS, with the assumption of LTE. (a)Column densities for optically thick lines derived using local ISM ratios (Wilson 1999; Milam et al. 2005). (b)Upper limits were determined by setting Tех, FWHM, and vpeak, equal to that derived for CH3OH and SO, for the O- and S-bearing species respectively. (c)To estimate a column density for HDO, the excitation temperature and line width of methanol was assumed.
