Notes. Col. 1: protocluster names. Col. 2: evolutionary stages of the protoclusters. Symbols Y, I and E denote the young, intermediate, and evolved protoclusters (see Section 1). Col. 3: number of DCN (3–2) cores which show single type Gaussian spectra (Cunningham et al. 2023). Col. 4: mean (1σ) non-thermal velocity dispersion of DCN cores (σnth, DCN). Col. 5: mean (1σ) non-thermal velocity dispersion of C18O (2–1) line (σnth,C18O). Col. 6: mean (1σ) sonic Mach number (Ms, DCN) for DCN cores. Col 7: mean (1σ) sonic Mach number (Ms, C18O) for C18O (2–1) line.
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.
