Types of data available (as fits images):


SOURCE.bima12m.cm Combined BIMA+12m CO channel maps in RA,DEC,VLSR; available for 24/44 galaxies (marked with *).
SOURCE.bima.cm BIMA-only CO channel maps in RA,DEC,VLSR; available for the remaining 20/44 galaxies. Velocity channel width is 10 km/s except for NGC0628 (5 km/s), NGC2841, NGC3031, NGC4725, and NGC5033 (20 km/s).
SOURCE.bima12m.mmom0 Combined BIMA+12m masked moment map of CO integrated intensity; available for 24/44 galaxies (marked with *).
SOURCE.bima.mmom0 BIMA-only masked moment map of CO integrated intensity; available for the remaining 20/44 galaxies.
SOURCE.bima12m.gmom1 Gaussian-fit velocity field, fit to combined BIMA+12m data cube (SOURCE.bima12m.cm); available for 24/44 galaxies (marked with *).
SOURCE.bima.gmom1 Gaussian-fit velocity field, fit to BIMA-only data cube (SOURCE.bima.cm); available for the remaining 20/44 galaxies.
SOURCE.primary_gain Primary beam gain function for (mosaiced or single-pointing) BIMA SONG data sets. Available for 44/44 galaxies.
SOURCE.12motf.chan On-the-Fly CO channel maps in RA,DEC,VLSR from the NRAO 12m telescope. Available for 24/44 galaxies (marked with *). These maps have been registered using a pointing crosscorrelation between the BIMA data and the 12m data; see Regan et al. (2001) and Helfer et al. (2002). Velocity resolution is usually 2 MHz (5.2 km/s); flux density units are Jy/bm. The edge few velocity channels may have significantly higher rms noises than most channels since the central VLSR was usually shifted partway through the observations. The outer 1-2 arcmin square "annulus" has a higher rms than the core region of the map; see Helfer et al. (2002).
SOURCE.12motf.umom On-the-Fly CO unclipped moment map of integrated intensity from the NRAO 12m telescope. Available for 24/44 galaxies (marked with *).
SOURCE.3mmcont Continuum emission at 112 GHz, available for NGC1068, NGC3031, and NGC4579. Upper limits for continuum emission for the remaining galaxies are tabulated in Helfer et al. (2002).
