Notes. Parameters of the best-fit single component model for the selected regions (Sect. 5.1).(a)The mean and median Tkin of the regions is not indicated, because there is a temperature gradient with decreasing T for increasing distances from the nucleus (Fig. 12). (b)Ratio between the rotational transitions CO(2−1)/CO(1−0) (r21) and CO(3−2)/CO(1−0) (r31) in K km s−1 units.
