a Unless otherwise stated, the intensity scale is antenna temperature (). It can be converted to main beam brightness temperature (Tmb) by dividing by Beff/Feff, where Beff is the main beam efficiency and ieff is the telescope forward efficiency. For the Yebes 40 m telescope in the Q band Beff = 0.797exp[−(ν(GHz)/71.1)2] and Feff = 0.97 (https://rt40m.oan.es/rt40m_en.php), for the IRAM30m telescope Beff = 0.871 exp[−(ν(GHz)/359)2] and Feff = 0.95 (https://publicwiki.iram.es/Iram30mEfficiencies), and for the GBT telescope we adopt Feff = 1.0 and Beff = 1.32 × 0.71 exp[−(ν(GHz)/103.7)2] (Frayer et al. 2018). The error in
includes the contributions from the Gaussian fit and from calibration (assumed to be 10%). b Intensity scale is Tmb. c Average of two lines. d Line neglected in the analysis. Intensity should be ~3 times larger to be consistent with the other lines.e Line detected marginally.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
