Calculated optical depths of CO,28SiO, and 29SiO.

Property CO 28 SiO 29SiO
Frequency (GHz) 345.796 347.330 342.979
Column density (cm−2) 1.20×1019 2.35×1017 1.20×1016
FWHM/2 (km s−1) 100 55.95 55.95
τ 8.30 5.94 3.44

Notes. Excitation temperatures were measured as the peak brightness temperature of the spectral feature. The values used for both isotopo-logues of SiO, such as temperature and partition function, are the same, with only column density varying between the calculations.
