Example of final spectra obtained with ALMA in January 2012 with their respective best fits for various latitudes exploring the two limbs, with a highlight on the location of the beacon. The strongest emission seen in the beacon (for example, orange spectrum and fit) is caused by the temperature increase at mbar pressures inside the hot vortex. The lines are plotted in the velocity frame with respect to the line rest frequency (230.538 GHz).
