Notes. We computed the total mass within the observed field of view of our targets for NH21021cm2${N_{{{\rm{H}}_2}}} \ge {10^{21}}\,{\rm{c}}{{\rm{m}}^{ - 2}}$. The NH2${N_{{{\rm{H}}_2}}}$ maps were derived for T = 20 K as explained in Sect. 2.2. a The major axes were set from the radial profile fitting, and using SAOImageDS9 the ellipses were fit by hand to the equal density contour. bPA of the ellipse. csize = (maj+min)/2. dSee references in Sect. 1.
