ABSTRACT

Context. Complex organic molecules (COMs) are commonly detected in and near star-forming regions. However, the dominantprocess in the release of these COMs from the icy grains —where they predominately form— to the gas phase is still an openquestion.Aims. We investigate the origin of COM emission in a high-mass protostellar source, CygX-N30 MM1, through high-angular-resolution interferometric observations over a continuous broad frequency range.Methods. We used 32 GHz Submillimeter Array (SMA) observations with continuous frequency coverage from 329 to 361 GHz at anangular resolution of ∼ 1′′ to do a line survey and obtain a chemical inventory of the source. The line emission in the frequency rangewas used to determine column densities and excitation temperatures for the COMs. We also mapped out the intensity distribution ofthe different species.Results. We identified approximately 400 lines that can be attributed to 29 different molecular species and their isotopologues. We findthat the molecular peak emission is along a linear gradient, and coincides with the axis of red- and blueshifted H2CO and CS emission.Chemical differentiation is detected along this gradient, with the O-bearing molecular species peaking towards one component of thesystem and the N- and S-bearing species peaking towards the other. The chemical gradient is offset from but parallel to the axisthrough the two continuum sources. The inferred column densities and excitation temperatures are compared to other sources whereCOMs are abundant. Only one deuterated molecule is detected, HDO, while an upper limit for CH2DOH is derived, leading to a D/Hratio of <0.1%.Conclusions. We conclude that the origin of the observed COM emission is probably a combination of the young stellar sourcesalong with accretion of infalling material onto a disc-like structure surrounding a young protostar and located close to one of thecontinuum sources. This disc and protostar are associated with the O-bearing molecular species, while the S- and N- bearing specieson the other hand are associated with the other continuum core, which is probably a protostar that is slightly more evolved than theother component of the system. The low D/H ratio likely reflects a pre-stellar phase where the COMs formed on the ices at warmtemperatures (∼ 30 K), where the deuterium fractionation would have been inefficient. The observations and results presented heredemonstrate the importance of good frequency coverage and high angular resolution when disentangling the origin of COM emission.

1. Introduction

Complex organic molecules (COMs; molecules with at least sixatoms, of which at least one is carbon; Herbst & van Dishoeck2009) are found everywhere in and near star-forming regions(e.g. Caselli & Ceccarelli 2012; Ceccarelli et al. 2014; Jørgensenet al. 2020). Our current understanding is that most COMs formon the surfaces of ice-covered dust grains, either from simplevolatile gas species frozen out onto the grains, or from rad-

icals in the ice (Öberg 2016). Near the forming stars, whereTdust & 100 K, the water-rich ice mantels sublimate off the dustgrains, releasing COMs into the gas phase, where they can be di-rectly observed at submillimetre (submm) wavelengths (the so-called hot cores; e.g. Kurtz et al. 2000; Cesaroni et al. 2010;Jørgensen et al. 2016). However, other non-thermal mechanismscan be efficient at desorbing COMs into the gas phase, and havebeen proposed in the literature. These include sputtering of the

ices in shocks, where the shocks are generated by jets and out-flows (e.g. Avery & Chiao 1996; Jørgensen et al. 2004; Arceet al. 2008; Sugimura et al. 2011; Lefloch et al. 2017), accretionshocks from the envelope onto the disc (e.g. Podio et al. 2015;Artur de la Villarmois et al. 2018; Csengeri et al. 2018, 2019),explosive events near forming stars (e.g. Orion KL; Zapata et al.2011; Orozco-Aguilera et al. 2017), and UV irradiation of theoutflow cavity walls (e.g. Drozdovskaya et al. 2015). Which ofthese processes dominate in releasing the molecules from the iceto the gas phase is in many cases unclear, as is the impact on theobserved chemistry.

Recently, Belloche et al. (2020) presented observations ofa sample of 26 solar-type protostars as part of the CALYPSOsurvey performed with the NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array(NOEMA). COM emission from methanol, CH3OH, the ‘sim-plest COM’ was detected towards 12 of the sources, with 8 ofthese sources having detections of at least three COMs. Theselatter authors found that a canonical hot-corino origin may ac-count for only four of the sources with COM emission, whilean accretion-shock origin fits best with two or possibly threesources, and an outflow origin fits three others. It is therefore be-coming increasingly clear that the origin of COMs in scenariosother than the canonical hot-corino (and hot cores) are relativelycommon, and through large surveys like CALYPSO we may geta better understanding of how these COMs form.

The work presented here is part of a large-frequency-rangeline survey of ten intermediate- to high-mass protostellar sourcesin the Cygnus X molecular cloud, which forms part of theGreat Cygnus Rift in the Galactic plane. Cygnus X is a prolificstar-forming region, with many newly formed stars of variousmasses, and has been the focus of numerous studies (for a fullreview of the region, see Reipurth & Schneider 2008, and refer-ences therein). Given its location in the Perseus Galactic spiralarm, the distance to Cygnus X is uncertain, with values in the lit-erature ranging between 1.3 and 3 kpc (e.g. Campbell et al. 1982;Odenwald & Schwartz 1993; Rygl et al. 2012). We assume thedistance of ∼1.3 kpc obtained by Rygl et al. (2012) from maserparallax measurements. It is home to one of the most massiveOB associations known in the Galaxy, Cyg OB2, with hundredsof young O-type stars and perhaps thousands of B-type stars(Knödlseder 2000). These massive stars provide a huge amountof ionising radiation to the region, making it an ideal target forthe study of how the external environment created by these mas-sive stars affects the chemistry of the surrounding star formingregions. To this end, full chemical inventories of a large sampleof surrounding protostars are required.

This kind of survey has historically been observationallyvery expensive, because it requires high angular resolution andmany hours of observation time to obtain the wide frequencyrange needed. However, in recent years it has become muchcheaper thanks to the upgraded receivers on the SubmillimeterArray (SMA), and its new SWARM1 correlator. It is now possi-ble to obtain 32 GHz of continuous frequency coverage in a frac-tion of the time required in the past. Taking advantage of thesenew capabilities of the SMA, we obtained data from ten newlyformed sources surrounding the Cyg OB2 association in order tostudy how the chemistry of these young stars is affected by theenvironment in which they form. Together, these observationsform the Protostellar Interferometric Line Survey of Cygnus-X(PILS-Cygnus).

1 SWARM is an acronym for SMA Wideband Astronomical ROACH2(second generation Reconfigurable Open Architecture ComputingHardware) Machine.

The focus of this paper is one of the most studied sources inthe Cygnus X cloud, W75N (B) (e.g. Haschick et al. 1981; Persiet al. 2006), or CygX-N30 (N30 hereafter, using the designationby Motte et al. 2007). This source contains three mm contin-uum cores, MM1, MM2, and MM3, where MM1 is the bright-est source and is composed of MM1a and MM1b (e.g. Shep-herd 2001; Minh et al. 2010). Three radio continuum sourceswere also detected towards MM1 (VLA1, VLA2 and VLA3),which have been identified as ultra-compact HII (UC HII) re-gions or thermal jets (Hunter et al. 1994; Torrelles et al. 1997;Shepherd et al. 2003; Carrasco-González et al. 2010; Rodríguez-Kamenetzky et al. 2020). Shepherd et al. (2004) found that theVLA sources drive high-velocity molecular outflows traced bySiO (2−1 and 1−0) emission. VLA1 and VLA2 were associ-ated with OH, H2O, and CH3OH masers (Torrelles et al. 1997;Minier et al. 2001; Hutawarakorn et al. 2002; Fish et al. 2005;Surcis et al. 2009), while VLA3 was found to be associatedwith one H2O maser (Shepherd 2001) with a radio jet and SiO(1−0) emission (Carrasco-González et al. 2010). A large-scaleCO outflow has been observed and found to originate from MM1and extending ∼1 pc in both directions (see Fischer et al. 1985;Hutawarakorn et al. 2002; Shepherd et al. 2003; Gibb et al. 2003;Birks et al. 2006; Surcis et al. 2009, 2011). Through MERLIN2

measurements of OH masers, Hutawarakorn et al. (2002) foundthat N30 hosts a rotating molecular disc with a radius of 3000AU, a rotation velocity of 6 km.s−1, and a mass of 120 M�.These latter authors found that this disc has a position angle of155◦ (measured from north), which is orthogonal to the large-scale molecular outflow seen in CO and H2 (PA ∼ 65◦). Theauthors note that the compact cluster of high-velocity OH andH2O masers coinciding with VLA2 appears to mark the centreof the outflow.

Minh et al. (2010) observed N30 with the SMA in the 215and 345 GHz spectral windows with 8 GHz frequency coverage,which indicated that a hot core is located at MM1b and is asso-ciated with a thermal jet from VLA1. These authors also founda chemical difference between the continuum cores MM1a andMM1b, which they suggest is the result of the evolution of amassive star-forming core. They argue that VLA1 is the heatingsource of the hot core, which suggests that the region associatedwith VLA1 is the site of recent star formation. Minh et al. (2010)observed SiO emission at the position of VLA2, which they in-terpret as a spherical shock driven by the recent star formation atthe site of VLA1.

In this paper we present new SMA observations of N30, pro-viding 32 GHz of continuous frequency coverage in the 345 GHzatmospheric window. This large frequency coverage makes itpossible to perform an unbiased survey of the spectroscopic sig-natures of the different components in the region and establishtheir molecular inventories. The paper is laid out as follows: adetailed description of the observational setup and data reduc-tion is given in Section 2. In Section 3 we present the results ofour analysis and then discuss them in Section 4. We end with asummary and conclusions in Section 5.

2. Observations

The SMA observations of N30 form part of the PILS-Cygnusprogramme (PI: Kristensen, project ID 2017A-S028), which inturn is an extension of the PILS programme (Jørgensen et al.2016), in which 34 GHz continuous frequency coverage ob-servations of the low-mass protostar, IRAS 16293–2422, ob-

tained from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Ar-ray (ALMA) were studied. The ten intermediate- to high-massprotostars of PILS-Cygnus were selected because they are all lo-cated in the same molecular cloud structure, and because of theirproximity to the Cyg-OB2 association, which provides an oppor-tunity to study the role of the external environment in setting thechemistry of newly formed stars. This paper presents the firstresults of the PILS-Cygnus programme.

2.1. Calibration

The observations were performed using the SMA in a combi-nation of the compact and extended configurations, that is, withprojected baselines ranging from 7 to 211 m. The full surveycovered ten sources and every source was observed for approxi-mately an equal amount of time over ten tracks: five tracks in thecompact configuration and five tracks in the extended configu-ration. This was done to ensure approximately equal sensitiv-ity for all observed sources. The compact-configuration trackswere executed between 27 June 2017 and 7 Aug 2017, whilethe extended-configuration tracks were observed between 20 Oct2017 and 10 Nov 2017. The number of antennas available in thearray was between six and eight.

MWC349A was used as the complex gain calibrator for allobservations, while the quasars 3c273, 3c454.3, and 3c84 wereused for bandpass calibration depending on the time of the obser-vations. Neptune, Titan, Callisto, and Uranus were used for fluxcalibration, again depending on the time of the observations. Adetailed observing log is presented in Appendix A, which alsoincludes information on the weather at the time of the observa-tions.

The receivers at the SMA were tuned such that they coveredthe entire frequency range from 329 to 361 GHz continuously.Specifically, the 345 GHz receivers were tuned to cover the spec-tral range from 329.2 to 337.2 GHz in the lower sideband and therange from 345.2 to 353.2 GHz in the upper sideband. The 400GHz receivers filled in the 8 GHz gaps, and covered the ranges of337.2–345.2 GHz and 353.2–361.2 GHz in the lower and uppersidebands, respectively. Each sideband consists of four chunks,and each chunk covers 2 GHz. The SWARM correlator providesa uniform spectral channel size of 140 kHz across the spectrum,corresponding to 0.12 km s−1 at 345 GHz. Prior to calibration,all spectral data were rebinned by a factor of four to a spectralresolution of 560 kHz, or 0.48 km s−1 at 345 GHz to improve thenoise level.

All data were calibrated in CASA 4.7 (Common AstronomySoftware Applications, McMullin et al. 2007). Calibration con-sisted first of flagging the channels at the edges and any anoma-lously high intensity spikes. The bandpass calibrator was thenphase-calibrated with a 30 sec solution interval before the com-plex gains and absolute flux were calibrated.

2.2. Imaging

Self-calibration and imaging were performed using CASA 4.7.Two rounds of phase self-calibration were performed on the con-tinuum, the first with a solution interval of 240 sec, followed by asecond round with a smaller solution interval of 60 sec. This re-sulted in a reduction in rms level of more than 30%. Only phaseself-calibration was performed.

Cleaning and imaging of the data set proceeded along twoaxes. First, the continuum data were cleaned in order to achievehigh angular resolution. This was done by setting the ‘robust’

parameter to −0.5, where robust= 2 gives natural weighting,and robust= −2 gives uniform weighting. This was an afford-able solution, because the continuum data had very high signal-to-noise ratio. The resulting beam size of the continuum datais 0′′.85 × 0′′.66 (PA = 12.1◦). The continuum rms sensitivity ofthe final line-free and self-calibrated image (Fig. 1) is 0.008 Jybeam−1.

In a second step, the line data were first continuum-subtracted using line-free channels. This was done by taking aspectrum towards MM1a in the image plane and going throughthe spectrum by hand to identify all the line-free channels. Thesefrequency ranges were then used throughout the cube, with thecontinuum subtraction done in the uv-plane. This exercise wasthen repeated to ensure that all the line-free channels remainedline-free. The obtained self-calibration solution was then appliedto the line data. To clean the line data, natural weighting wasused in order to get the highest possible line sensitivity. For thefull data cube, non-interactive cleaning was used with a circu-lar cleaning mask centred at coordinates R. A. = 20h38m 36s.62and Dec. = 42◦37′31′′.81, with a radius of 24′′, and includingthe MM1, MM2, and MM3 cores. The resulting beam size is∼ 1′′.65 × 1′′.55 (PA = 11◦). The noise level varies across thespectrum from ∼ 0.2 − 0.7 Jy beam−1 as a function of receiver,as is clearly visible in Fig. 2, particularly around a frequency of353.2 GHz. The noise level also varies as a function of the Inter-mediate Frequency (IF) performance of the receiver, as can beseen from the edge effects. A typical value of the rms is ∼0.5 Jybeam−1 in 0.48 km s−1 channels. The blanked channels in Fig. 2are high-amplitude edge channels.

3. Results

3.1. Continuum emission

The 345 GHz (850 µm) continuum image is shown in Fig. 1. Thefour previously identified sources are marked as MM1a, MM1b,MM2, and MM3 (e.g. Shepherd 2001; Minh et al. 2010). MM1aand MM1b are considerably brighter than MM2 and MM3,peaking at 0.53 and 0.48 Jy beam−1, respectively. All sourcesshow extended emission, with large-scale structure visible to thewest of the MM1 region, as well as northwest of MM1b. Thereis some extended emission to the east of MM2, and some faintstructure just visible to the south of MM1. As with previous stud-ies (e.g. Minh et al. 2010), we detect no COM emission fromthe continuum cores MM2 and MM3, and this paper thereforefocuses on emission towards MM1a and MM1b. The positionsof the peak continuum emission for MM1a and MM1b werederived using 2D Gaussian fits, and are shown in Table 1 andmarked with plus symbols in Fig. 1, with the dashed line repre-senting the axis going through these two positions. MM1a andMM1b are separated by ∼1′′, or ∼1300 AU, at a distance of 1.3kpc.

In addition to the 345 GHz continuum cores, Fig. 1 alsoshows the positions of the three radio continuum sources VLA1,VLA2, and VLA3, which were identified previously (Hunteret al. 1994; Torrelles et al. 1997; Shepherd et al. 2003) using

mm and centimetre (cm) observations from the Very Large Ar-ray (VLA) telescope. VLA1 is located to the west and slightlyto the north of the MM1b submm peak, while VLA2 is to thenorth of the MM1a peak (southwest of MM1b). VLA3 is lo-cated very close to but slightly to the east of MM1a (see alsoRodríguez-Kamenetzky et al. 2020, for recent high-resolutionVLA observations of the region). The red and blue arrows repre-sent the large-scale CO emission (PA ∼65◦ from north) centredat VLA2, with the dotted line representing the disc-like structure(PA ∼155◦) traced by OH masers, as identified by Hutawarakornet al. (2002).

To check whether the dust is optically thick or not, the firststep is to calculate the dust mass. Here, this is only done towardsthe MM1a source, which is the brightest continuum source inthe field. The total mass (gas + dust) can be calculated using thefollowing relation (e.g. Artur de la Villarmois et al. 2018):

M =S νd2

κνBν(T ), (1)

where S ν = 0.53 Jy beam−1 is the peak intensity of MM1a,d = 1.3 kpc, and Bν(T ) is the Planck function at the specific fre-quency and temperature. κν is the dust opacity (at ν = 345 GHz,κν = 0.0175 cm2 per gram of gas for a gas-to-dust ratio of 100;Ossenkopf & Henning 1994). For a beam size of 0′′.85 × 0′′.66,and taking T = 30 K, we get M = 3.0M� of gas and dust. Ifthis mass is spread evenly over the beam, this corresponds to anH2 column density of 5.3 × 1024 cm−2, where a mean molecularweight of µ = 2.8 was used to account for Helium (Kauffmannet al. 2008). This may be converted to optical depth using thefollowing expression (e.g. Schöier et al. 2002):

τν = κνµmHNH2 . (2)

We note that Schöier et al. (2002) includes a dust-to-gas ratio,δ = 0.01, and κ is their dust opacity (dust only). As we have

folded the dust-to-gas ratio into κν above (gas + dust), this pa-rameter is not needed in the expression for the dust optical depth.Furthermore, we correct a typo in Schöier et al. (2002) and useµmH instead of mH2 , again with µ = 2.8. This yields a dustopacity of 0.43. We conclude that the dust emission is at leastmarginally optically thin for a gas-to-dust ratio of 100.

3.2. Molecular line emission

Figure 2 shows a spectrum from the data taken at the positionof peak continuum emission of MM1a. The 32 GHz continu-ous frequency coverage of the data (329 – 361 GHz) includedapproximately 400 molecular lines detected above 3σ towardsthe MM1 source, or a line temperature sensitivity of ∼ 10 K.Line identification was done by covering the points as describedin Snyder et al. (2005) and using the software package CAS-SIS3 (Centre d’Analyse Scientifique de Spectres Instrumentauxet Synthetiques; Vastel et al. 2015), in which the CDMS4 (Mülleret al. 2001, 2005; Endres et al. 2016) and JPL5 (Pickett et al.1998) molecular spectroscopy databases were used to construct asynthetic spectrum. Previously identified molecules were addedto the synthetic spectrum first, which was then compared to theobserved spectrum in order to find and identify the remaininglines above 3σ. From the observed lines, we identified 29 dif-ferent molecules and their isotopologues, including five COMs,(CH3OH, C2H5OH, CH3OCH3, CH3OCHO, and CH3CN).

The molecular transitions detected at > 3σ are listed be-low, with the oxygen-bearing species in Table 2, sulphur-bearingspecies in Table 3, and nitrogen-bearing species shown in Table4, together with SiO, HDO, CO, and HCO+. There are approx-imately 40 lines that remain unidentified, including two brightlines (at frequencies not corrected for the systemic velocity of354.44896 GHz and 356.24131 GHz, and labelled ‘U’ in Fig.2). A full list of detected molecules above 3σ are listed in Table8.

3.3. Integrated molecular intensity maps

The molecular peak positions were found by making integratedintensity emission maps of each molecule. Where a moleculehad more than one line, the lines were stacked using a 1/σ2

weighting scheme —where σ is the RMS measured on anemission-free region for each channel map— in order to in-crease the intensity and determine an average peak position ofthe molecule. Only unblended lines were used.

In the cases where red- and blueshifted components arepresent, the components were separated with integrated mapsmade for each component. A map of blue- and redshifted H2COemission is shown in Fig 3 as an example (frequency = 351.77GHz, J = 51,5 − 41,4, and Eup = 62.45 K). In this figure, thecontinuum emission is depicted in colour, with the red- andblueshifted integrated intensity maps shown in red and blue con-tours, respectively.

The maximum intensity for the components were found atpositions offset from the MM1a continuum peak: (−0′′.83, 1′′.72)for the blueshifted components and (−0′′.03, 0′′.52) for the red-shifted ones. The line plots for the blue- and redshifted compo-nents are shown in Figs. 4 and 5, respectively.

As can be seen from Fig. 3, the blue- and redshifted compo-nents of H2CO emission falls on an axis —marked with a dotted

Fig. 3. Continuum image of N30, with the red and blueshifted 351.77GHz H2CO, J = 51,5−41,4, transition shown in contours. The blueshiftedcomponent shows more concentrated emission along the outflow axis(represented with a dotted line, running nearly parallel to the axisthrough the continuum peaks, represented with a dashed line), whilethe redshifted emission is slightly more extended perpendicular to theoutflow axis, with some emission to the north of the MM2 continuumcore. The velocity ranges extend to ± 14.25 km s−1 from the systemicvelocity of 9.5 km s−1. Beam sizes are shown in the bottom left cor-ner, and are 0′′.85 × 0′′.66, with PA = 12.1◦, for the continuum, and1′′.61× 1′′.51, PA = 162.24◦, for the molecular emission. Contour levelsare at 3σ, 6σ, and 12σ. The blue and red arrows represent the large-scale CO emission.

transition is shown in Fig. 7. Other molecules that exhibit red-and blueshifted components are CO, 13CO, HCN, and HCO+.

In order to investigate this large-scale velocity gradient, Figs.6 and 10 show position–velocity maps of the H2CO and CSemission, respectively. The high-velocity emission of H2CO andCS is close to the centre (at 0′′ offset, between the red- andblueshifted emission peaks), whereas the emission at a larger off-set from the centre shows a velocity closer to the systemic veloc-ity of the protostar. This could trace an infall motion coupled to arotation pattern, which might be due to a disc-like structure (e.g.Zhu et al. 2011). A comprehensive study of the kinematics of thesystem is beyond the scope of this paper, but position–velocity

The panels in Fig. 11 show the molecular peaks of eachmolecule; these peaks are concentrated along the axis of the red-and blueshifted components of H2CO and CS emission. Eachpanel shows a contour map of the integrated molecular line emis-sion of a different molecule. In the case of molecules with morethan one unblended line, such as for example CH3OH, the im-ages show stacked emission for better S/N. The peak for eachmolecule was found using 2D Gaussian fits to the integrated (andagain stacked where more than one unblended line was detected)molecular line emission, and is indicated with a plus symbolof the same colour as the contour for that molecule. To verifythese fit results for the peak positions, an independent fit of thestrongest unblended CH3OH and SO2 lines was performed inuv-space prior to cleaning the data. These fits confirm the resultsfrom the image plane, and typical differences are less than 0′′.2,the adopted pixel size, and one-fifth of the beam. We thereforeadopt a typical uncertainty on the peak locations as 0′′.2 through-out. However, we note that the formal uncertainties on the peak

As with the H2COline, CS shows red- and blueshifted emission along the same outflowaxis. The blueshifted emission shows some extended emission furtherout to the northeast, while the redshifted emission is slightly more con-centrated than for H2CO. Here, the velocity ranges extend to ± 15.6 kms−1 from the systemic velocity of 8.75 km s−1. Beam sizes and contourlevels are as in Fig. 3.

locations from the fits in the uv-plane and image plane, respec-tively, yield uncertainties of typically 0′′.01–0′′.02.

The full width at half maximum (FWHM) and source veloc-ities (3source) of the lines were determined by making 1D Gaus-sian fits to the respective lines. The detailed values obtained foreach line are shown in Table 2 for the oxygen-, Table 3 for thesulphur-, and Table 4 for the nitrogen-bearing species, with thistable also showing SiO, HDO, CO, and HCO+.

We find that all molecules that do not show significant extendedemission peak along a linear gradient coinciding with the axismarked by the red- and blueshifted components of the H2COand CS emission. This axis runs parallel to but is offset from theaxis drawn between the continuum peaks of MM1a and MM1b,as shown in Fig. 12. To investigate whether or not this observed

Position–velocity map of the 342.88 GHz CS J = 7 − 6 line.As with the H2CO map, the emission at larger velocity is concentratedclose to the centre of the emission (between the red- and blueshiftedpeaks), whereas the emission close to the systemic velocity extends outto larger spacial scales.

molecular gradient is the result of a difference in upper-level en-ergy of the molecular transitions, that is, a temperature gradient,the peak positions of different transitions of CH3OH and SO2are represented in Figs. 13 and 14, where the upper-level ener-gies are represented in different colours. As can be seen fromthe plot, there does not seem to be any pattern, and the positionsof the respective lines seem to be distributed randomly. Morespecifically, the peaks are distributed within less than one-thirdof the beam, that is, the spread is over ∼0′′.4, whereas the beamsize is ∼1′′.5. A similar exercise was performed for the criticaldensities (ncrit), where ncrit = Aij/Kij, with Aij the Einstein A co-efficient for spontaneous emission, and Kij the rate coefficientof the transition from the upper level i to the lower level j, fortemperatures of 100 K (rate coefficients were obtained from theLeiden Atomic and Molecular Database; Schöier et al. 2005)6.Figures 15 and 16 again show the peak positions of the differenttransitions of CH3OH and SO2, with the critical densities of dif-ferent transitions represented in colours.

Notes. (a) The transitions listed here, as well as the transitions listed in Tables 3 and 4, were relatively isolated and unblended, and were used tomake the emission maps shown in Fig. 11. (b) Typical uncertainties on the Gaussian centroid fits are (0′′.2, 0′′.2) for the position, 0.3 Jy beam−1 forIpeak, Jy beam−1 km s−1 for Iint, and 0.4 km s−1 for the FWHM and 3source. (c) The two entries for H2CO are red- and blueshifted lines, respectively.See also entries for CS.

peaks are localised within a fraction of a beam (0′′.4 – 0′′.6 vs. the1′′.5 beam), which leads us to conclude that the observed gradientis not an excitation gradient.

Figure 12 illustrates the observed molecular gradient, wherethe molecular peak emission is represented in three groups.The O-bearing COMs peak closer to MM1b, between VLA1and VLA2 (positions 1 and 2), with CH3OH peaking close toVLA2, and the more complex species (C2H5OH, CH3OCHO,and CH3OCH3) peaking closer to VLA1. The exceptions hereare the S-bearing species, CS, OCS, and H2CS, which peak be-tween VLA1 and VLA2, while the other S-bearing species peakbetween VLA2 and VLA3 (position 3). This is also where theN-bearing species peak. Moreover, HCOOH peaks close to theVLA3/MM1a positions, but shows more extended emission in

the northwest direction, along the blueshifted outflow axis (seeFig. 11).

3.5. Other molecules

The 347.33 GHz SiO, J = 8−7, transition has a weak blueshiftedcomponent at −6 km s−1 (or perhaps a neighbouring unidentifiedline, see Fig. 17), which was included in the integrated line map,with the velocity range of the integrated map from −10 km s−1

to 20 km s−1. The source velocity and FWHM listed in Table 4are for the component centred around 10 km s−1. The molecularpeak for SiO is at position 3 in Fig. 12, together with the S- andN-bearing species.

Only one deuterated molecule is detected, the 335.395 GHzHDO, J = 33,1 − 42,2 transition. This is shown in contours over

3.6. Column densities

As we observe such a strong chemical gradient in the positionsof the molecular peak emission, we derived column densitiesfor the respective molecules at the three positions shown in Fig.12. A synthetic spectrum was constructed with CASSIS using

only line emission, assuming local thermodynamic equilibrium(LTE). The inbuilt regular grid function was used to cover a largeparameter space and compute the reduced χ2 minimum in orderto determine the best-fit spectral model. Four parameters wereused as variables for fitting of the observed spectra. These werethe source velocity (3source), FWHM, the column density (N), andexcitation temperature (Tex). Estimates for the FWHM and 3sourcewere first obtained by looking at a few individual lines and fittingGaussian profiles to these lines. These estimates were then usedwith a parameter space of 4 km s−1 around the lines, in steps of0.5 km s−1 , which is equivalent to the channel width. The initialparameter space for N was Nmin = 1014 and Nmax = 1019, with

Table 6 in turn shows valuesobtained at peak position 2, between VLA1 and VLA2. Finally,Table 7 shows the values obtained at position 3, where the N- andS-bearing species peak (between VLA2 and VLA3). The uncer-tainties for N and Tex are mainly a result of how well the spectralmodel fits the data. This in turn depends on our assumptions ofLTE (if the level populations are not in LTE, this will introducea systematic error), optically thin emission (if emission is op-tically thick, column densities will be underestimated), and the

In the case of molecules with many optically thick lines, suchas CH3OH and SO2, the column densities were obtained fromoptically thin isotopologue emission. The isotopologue columndensity was then multiplied by the ISM isotope ratio. As an ex-ample, the modelled column density of 13CH3OH was multipliedby the 12C/13C ratio, which we took to be ∼ 77 (Wilson & Rood1994). Similarly, column densities for optically thick sulphur-bearing molecular lines were obtained using the ISM isotopo-logue ratio 32S/34S ∼ 22 (Wilson 1999). In the case of CH3CN,we did not detect its isotopologue 13CH3CN, and so we used thehigher energy transition, CH3CN, v8=1, for the fitting.

Apart from HDO, no other deuterated molecules were de-tected. Upper limits for the column densities of CH2DOH werefound to be 4.6 ×1016 cm−2, 6.8×1016 cm−2, and 8.9×1016 cm−2

at positions 1, 2, and 3, respectively. These values were obtainedby assuming Tex, 3source, and FWHM of 13CH3OH, and then in-creasing the column density of the synthetic spectrum until some

lines have a strength of & 3σ of the observed spectrum. The ob-tained upper limits correspond to a D/H ratio of ∼0.1%. Thisvalue includes statistical correction for the three possible sym-metries of the CH2DOH molecule, which will give an observedNCH2DOH/NCH3OH ratio a factor of three higher than the actualratio (see e.g. Jørgensen et al. 2018; Manigand et al. 2019).

A number of more complex species have been de-tected towards high-mass star-forming regions; for exampleSgr(B2) near the Galactic centre. One of the more abundantmolecules detected towards this source is acetone (CH3COCH3)with a relative molecular abundance of X, corresponding toN(CH3COCH3) / N(CH3OH) ∼ 0.1 (Belloche et al. 2016). Whenadopting the same column-density ratio and physical conditions,we find that the non-detection towards N30 is consistent with thenoise level.

Relative abundances of the modelled molecules are shownin Figs. 19 and 20, with Fig. 19, showing the column densitiesof each molecule with respect to the column density of CH3OH,at each respective position, whereas Fig. 20 shows the columndensities with respect to the column density of CH3CN. As withthe integrated intensity maps, we see how the O-bearing speciespeak towards position 1, while the N- and S- bearing speciespeak towards position 3.

4. Discussion

In this section, we discuss our results in more detail, startingwith a comparison of the abundances towards N30 with othersources, followed by discussions on excitation temperatures andthe D/H ratio observed towards N30. We end the section with adiscussion of the continuum cores, and the observed moleculargradient.

4.1. Abundances compared to other sources

To put the inferred abundances into a broader context, we com-pare them to those observed towards different sources, lookingat the differences and similarities. An example of such a com-parison is presented by Drozdovskaya et al. (2019), in whichabundances towards the low-mass protostar IRAS 16293B arecompared with those measured towards Comet 67P/C-G, withthe cometary data used as a representation of the initial ingredi-ents that formed the Earth and the other Solar System planets.From their results, the authors concluded that the volatile com-position of cometesimals and planetesimals is partially inheritedfrom the pre- and protostellar phases of the evolution. Jørgensenet al. (2020) extended this comparison to include sources of dif-ferent masses and located in different environments. They com-pared, for example, IRAS 16293B and HH212 (both low-masssources located relatively close to the Sun), AFGL 4176 (a high-mass sources also in our Galactic neighbourhood), and Sgr B2(N2), a high-mass source located close to the Galactic centre.They also included the shocked regions L1157 B1 and Orion KLas well as Comet 67P/C-G in their comparison. The result of thiscomparison was that the abundances towards these sources arein general very similar, which is an indication that the underly-ing chemistry is relatively independent of the differences in theirphysical conditions. There are some differences, however. Theselatter authors found, for example, that abundances observed to-wards the protostellar sources tend to agree better with one an-other than with those towards Comet 67P/C-G, which suggeststhat some chemical processing occurs between the protostellarand cometary stages (see also Drozdovskaya et al. 2019). In this

section, we compare the available column densities observed to-wards the sources from Jørgensen et al. (2020) to the those weobserve towards N30. The column densities taken are relativeto CH3OH, CH3CN, and SO2, representing COM, N-, and S-bearing species, respectively. These sources were selected sim-ply because of the amount of data available in the literature foreach of them. While there are many sources in the literature withavailable column densities, it is rare to find sources observedwith wide enough frequency coverage so that column densitiescan be found for a large amount of molecules. We therefore com-pare N30 to these sources. As N30 shows a strong chemical gra-dient, it is important to place the column densities measured to-wards this source in context with those of the sources from thesestudies, and in this way achieve a better understanding of thephysical nature of the observed chemical gradient.

Figure 21 shows the column density ratios observed towardsN30 compared with those observed towards the sources dis-cussed above. The figure shows the column density ratios to-wards position 2 (see Fig. 12). Similar figures are provided forpositions 1 and 3 in Appendix B. The panels in the figure showthe column densities of each molecule with respect to CH3OH,with N30 represented on the y-axis, and each respective sourcerepresented on the x-axis. The upper-left panel shows the Galac-tic centre source, Sgr B2 (N2), which is part of the Sgr B2 molec-ular cloud, one of the most active high-mass star forming re-gions in the Galaxy; it was part of the high-resolution EMoCAsurvey (Exploring Molecular Complexity with ALMA Bellocheet al. 2016, 2017; Müller et al. 2016; Bonfand et al. 2019). Forthis source, the O-bearing species show similar abundances (dif-ferences within one order of magnitude), while the N-bearingspecies observed towards N30 have lower ratios compared toCH3OH (typically by a factor 10).

The upper-right panel shows abundances measured by theROSINA instrument of the Rosetta mission towards Comet67P/C-G, as presented by Drozdovskaya et al. (2019) in theircomparison to the low-mass source IRAS 16293B which wasthe target of the PILS program by Jørgensen et al. (2016). Abun-dances towards Comet 67P/C-G are in general higher than thatobserved towards N30, with no real differences between O- andN-bearing species. However, for IRAS 16293B, the O-bearingspecies are very similar to N30, while the N- and S-bearingspecies are in general higher towards N30. This is in contrastto the Galactic centre source Sgr B2 (N2), which also showssimilar O-bearing species, but with higher abundances in N-bearing species. This would suggest that N30 has abundancesin N-bearing species somewhere in between the Galactic cen-tre (high-mass) source, and the solar neighbourhood (low-mass)source IRAS 16293B.

Orion KL, which is not a ‘traditional’ hot core but is believedto be the result of an explosive event where a pre-existing denseregion is heated from the outside (Friedel & Snyder 2008; Zap-ata et al. 2011; Crockett et al. 2015; Pagani et al. 2017), shows,in general, similar abundances to those observed towards N30.The high-mass source AFGL 4176 (Bøgelund et al. 2019) showsabundances in even better agreement to N30. HH212 is a low-mass source, with COMs observed in its disc atmosphere, thatis, above and below the disc (Lee et al. 2019). This source alsoshows similarities to N30, although the available data in the lit-erature for this source are still limited. L1157-B1 (Arce et al.2008; Sugimura et al. 2011; Lefloch et al. 2017) on the otherhand is a shocked region, with the available column densitiesfor this source suggesting that the O-bearing species are a littleless abundant in N30, while the only N-bearing species avail-able for comparison, CH3CN, is significantly more abundant in

N30. Nevertheless, when all the sources are compared, the abun-dances observed towards AFGL 4176 agree best with those to-wards N30. At a distance of ∼ 3.7 kpc, this source is more dis-tant than N30 (d ∼ 1.3 kpc), and more luminous, with an up-per limit of 2 × 105 L� (compared to N30, with a luminosity of∼ 2.04 × 104 L�; Cao et al. 2019). It also has a large disc-likestructure, as was found by Johnston et al. (2015) using ALMAobservations of CH3CN on scales of ∼ 1200 AU. Furthermore,Bøgelund et al. (2019) found (also from ALMA observations, ata resolution of ∼ 1285 AU) that the O- and N-bearing speciesin this source also peak in slightly different locations, with N-bearing species peaking slightly closer to the continuum peakthan the O-bearing species. This would suggest that a combina-tion of processes could be causing the sublimation of the COMsfrom the dust grains rather than the traditional hot core model.The agreement with Orion KL also strengthens the case that it isa combination of processes that result in the COMs we observe.

It therefore seems that, when comparing the abundancesobserved towards N30, they agree more with other high-masssources, such as AFGL 4176 (a more traditional hot core, butwith some chemical differentiation) and Orion KL (a high-mass,shocked region), than with the abundances observed towardslow-mass sources, such as IRAS 16293B, or the outflow region,L1157-B1. The agreement is also better with these high-mass

sources than compared to high-mass sources in the Galactic cen-tre. The environment here, which has a cosmic ray ionisationrate of a factor of 50 higher than usually assumed for the Galac-tic disc (Guzmán et al. 2015; Bonfand et al. 2019), resulting ina higher dust temperature. This presents some challenges forour understanding of the formation of COMs (Jørgensen et al.2020), which are believed to form primarily on grain surfaces atlow temperatures. However, it might explain the high abundanceof N-bearing species in the Galactic centre, which evolves overlonger timescales in the gas phase (Garrod et al. 2017; Bøgelundet al. 2019). It might also explain the low abundance of S- andN-bearing species in low-mass sources, where the temperaturesare lower than in their high-mass counterparts. Bøgelund et al.(2019) suggest that AFGL 4176 is a very young source, wherelittle processing of the chemical inventory by the protostar hasoccurred, which is why they observe N-bearing species to below in abundance compared to Sgr B2. For the shocked regionL1157-B1, the O-bearing species are sputtered off of the dustgrains, but there is not sufficient time for the nitrogen chem-istry to evolve in the gas phase (see chemical models by e.g.Garrod 2013; Barone et al. 2015; Garrod et al. 2017; Codellaet al. 2017). The agreement between the abundances towardsN30 MM1 and AFGL 4176 would suggest that the sources areat a similar stage of evolution, although at scales of ∼ 1200 AU,

AFGL 4176 appears to be a single source, as opposed to N30,which is at least a binary source at scales of ∼ 1300 AU, with theMM1b/VLA1 core probably less evolved than the MM1a/VLA3core.

Figure 22 shows the abundances of O-bearing species nor-malised to CH3OH, with N30 on the x-axis and the respectivesources depicted with different symbols on the y-axis. Figure 23shows the N and S-bearing species normalised to CH3CN andSO2, respectively. Some trends that can be seen in Fig. 22 are thatthe abundances of O-bearing species in Comet 67P and L1157-B1 are in general higher than the protostellar sources (aroundone order of magnitude), while the shocked region Orion KLshows higher relative abundances in CH3OCHO and CH3OCH3(5–10 times higher), but with H2CO and C2H5OH comparableto N30. IRAS 16293B has abundances in O-bearing species thatare a little higher than N30 (around five times), while Sgr B2(N2) has a higher abundance in C2H5OH and (five to ten times),and with abundances of CH3OCHO, CH3OCH3, and H2CO sim-ilar to those for N30. As discussed above for Fig. 21, we also seefrom this figure that the best agreement is with the high-masssource AFGL 4176. This can also be seen in the abundances withrespect to CH3CN and SO2 in Fig. 23, with AFGL 4176 show-ing similar abundances, while Orion KL has higher abundancesin N-bearing species but a similar abundance of H2CS. How-

ever, for the N- and S-bearing species, the number of molecularspecies available for comparison is limited.

Therefore, while N30 clearly shows a strong chemical gra-dient with different species peaking in different locations, theinferred abundances are typical of what is seen towards otherintermediate- and high-mass protostars. This suggests that, nomatter the physical origin of the chemical gradient, the chem-istry does not change significantly between different sources.

4.2. Excitation temperatures

We find some differences when comparing the excitation tem-peratures of different molecular species. The N- and S-bearingspecies seem to be slightly warmer than the O-bearing species,with ranges from 130 to 200 K and 100 to 140 K, respectively.HC3N seems to be warmer than other molecular species, witha range of 200 − 240 K between the three positions in Fig. 12.t-HCOOH also seems to be warmer (170− 190 K) than other O-bearing species, but considering that it peaks at the position withthe N-bearing species, this might not be strange, because it doesnot seem to be connected with the other O-bearing molecules.H2

13CO also has a warmer excitation temperature, in the rangeof 150 − 190 K.

Other authors have found more significant differences in theexcitation temperatures of N- and O-bearing species towards

other sources. An example is Orion KL, in which the O-bearingspecies trace gas of lower temperatures —ranging between 100and 150 K— than the N-bearing species, which trace gas of200 − 300 K (Bell et al. 2014; Crockett et al. 2015). Jørgensenet al. (2018) also found a range of 80 − 300 K in excitation tem-peratures of different molecular species in IRAS 16293, and sug-gested that the differences observed could be attributed to bind-ing energy. van ’t Hoff et al. (2020) argues that the so-called ‘sootline’ located close to the protostar at a temperature of ∼ 300 Kis marked by an excess of hydrocarbons and nitriles sublimatedfrom of carbon grains inside this line. The O-bearing COMs onthe other hand desorb around the water snowline, which is lo-cated further out from the protostar at a temperature of ∼ 100 K.However, in the case of N30, we do not observe the COMs con-centrated at a central position, but rather spread out in a chemicalgradient, which suggest that it is probably not a traditional hotcore(s) but rather a combination of factors causing the chemi-cal gradient and the difference in excitation temperature that weobserve, including two or more protostars (see Section 4.4).

4.3. D/H ratio

We find an upper limit on the D/H ratio derived forN(CH2DOH)/N(CH3OH) of about 0.1%. Compared to IRAS

16293B, which has values of 2%-3%, this is very low. It isalso lower than values reported by Neill et al. (2013) for OrionKL, in which they found similar D/H ratios for water, formalde-hyde, and methanol, 0.2%-0.8%. However, for Sgr B2 (N2), Bel-loche et al. (2016) reported a XD/XH ratio for CH2DOH of0.12%, which they argue might be because of the higher kinetictemperatures in the Galactic centre region compared to nearbystar-forming regions. Bøgelund et al. (2019) do not detect anydeuterated species towards AFGL 4176, which further strength-ens the agreement between this source and N30, as discussed inthe abundance comparison above. Other high-mass sources havealso shown low D/H ratios (e.g. Ratajczak et al. 2011; Bøgelundet al. 2018). Bøgelund et al. (2018) conclude that warm forma-tion temperatures of ∼ 30 K could account for the low deutera-tion in the NGC 6334I regions, with the pre-stellar cloud heatedby a nearby O-type star and associated HII region. In the caseof N30, the presence of the strong radiation field caused by thenearby Cyg–OB2 association (projected distance of ∼23 pc ata distance of 1.3 kpc; Reipurth & Schneider 2008) may haveheated the pre-stellar cloud and resulted in the low levels ofdeuteration we observe.

An alternative is that the prestellar phase is cold but short, asis expected for higher mass sources. In this scenario, time is thebottleneck in setting the deuteration, as opposed to above where

VLA3 to the north of MM1a. All molecules peak on a gradi-ent traced by the red- and blueshifted axis of H2CO and CSemission. This axis is nearly perpendicular to the larger scale(∼1 pc; Fischer et al. 1985) bipolar outflow axis seen in COemission, which might indicate that the observed submm and ra-dio continuum sources are located in a disc-like structure (seeHutawarakorn et al. 2002). It is important to note here thatthis disc-like structure is more akin to a pseudo-disc that is notrotation-supported, but just a rotating structure around the pro-tostars. Looking at the H2CO and CS maps in Figs. 3 and 7,it is also clear that this structure is very large, with a radiusof around 3000 AU, and encompass all the continuum sources(see also Hutawarakorn et al. 2002). Similar disc-like struc-tures are also observed in other sources, such as G35.20-0.74N,in which Hutawarakorn & Cohen (1999) observed a large-scaleoutflow structure seen in CO emission perpendicular to a disc-like structure containing four hot cores. Chemical differentiation

between the different cores was also observed for this source(with separation between the cores of 1000 − 2000 AU; Allenet al. 2017), with O- and S-bearing species detected towards theinner two cores (B1 and B2), but few N-bearing species, whilethe outer two cores (B3 and A) have strong detections of N-, S-, and O-bearing species. Another source is G328.2551−0.5321,for which Csengeri et al. (2018) found N-bearing COMs peak-ing towards the protostar, while the O-bearing COMs peak to-wards two spots, offset from the protostar (see also Csengeriet al. 2019). The authors interpreted the two spots as accretionshocks onto a disc with an estimated distance of 200 − 800 AUfrom the central protostar. These large disc-like structures aretherefore not uncommon in high-mass protostars, and chemicaldifferentiation also seems to be a common feature. Furthermore,with the high angular resolution provided by interferometric ob-servations, more and more examples of sources are identified inwhich the observed COM emission cannot be explained by thecanonical hot-core scenario in which COMs sublimate from theheated dust grains close to the protostar. This was also seen byBelloche et al. (2020) for low-mass protostars in the CALYPSOsurvey.

For N30, we observe chemical differentiation between S- andN-bearing species associated with the VLA2 and VLA3/MM1acores on the one hand, and COMs and O-bearing species associ-ated with the VLA1/MM1b core on the other. Molecules that donot follow this differentiation in O- and S-/N-bearing species aret-HCOOH, observed to peak towards position 3 at the N- andS-bearing species position, and CS, OCS, and H2CS that peaktowards the O-bearing species position.

Our results therefore suggest that N30 is not a purely tradi-tional hot core in which ice-covered dust grains collapse towardsa warm protostar and are heated to temperatures & 100 K as theyget closer, where the ices sublimate and we see a peak of COMemission (see e.g. Herbst & van Dishoeck 2009, and referencestherein). The release of the COMs into the gas phase may thenlead to further reactions in the dense warm gas, but this is stillcentred on the region where the dust temperature exceeds ∼ 100K. Instead, the O-bearing COM emission is likely caused by acombination of processes, including accretion of infalling mate-rial onto the disc surface —which is similar to what was foundby Csengeri et al. (2018) for G328.2551–0.5321—,while the N-and S- bearing species towards VLA3/MM1a might be a slightlymore evolved source where the gas-phase chemistry had moretime to evolve.

5. Summary and Conclusions

We observed CygX-N30 and MM1 with the SMA in the 345GHz frequency window at a resolution of ∼1′′ and with 32GHz of continuous frequency coverage. About 400 lines weredetected from 29 different molecular species and their isotopo-logues.

We observe a chemical gradient of molecules along the axisof a disc-like structure perpendicular to the large-scale bi-polarCO emission observed in previous studies. This disc is parallelto but offset from the axis connecting the mm continuum cores(by ∼1′′). The O-bearing molecular emission peaks are close tobut offset to the west of the MM1b continuum core and are be-tween the VLA1 and VLA2 radio continuum cores, which fall onthe molecular gradient–disc axis. The N- and S-bearing specieson the other hand are concentrated closer to the MM1a core,between the VLA2 and VLA3 radio continuum cores. The disc-like structure is observed from the red- blueshifted H2CO andCS emission, which signifies infalling gas onto the surface of

the disc-like structure. This implies that the COMs observed to-wards MM1 are not purely the result of a traditional hot core,but are rather caused by a combination of processes, includingaccretion. In order to test this hypothesis, it will be useful to re-observe this source in a few years to check for time variability.

Comparing the abundances observed towards N30 MM1with other sources, we find that it is similar to the high-massprotostar AFGL 4176, and to a lesser extent to the shocked re-gion Orion KL, and to the Galactic centre source Sgr B2 (N2).The O-bearing species show similar abundances with respect toCH3OH towards these sources, whereas for Sgr B2 (N2), the N-bearing species are less abundant in N30, while the low-masssource IRAS 16293B has lower abundances in N- and S-bearingspecies; the O-bearing species are similar. The agreement withAFGL 4176 seems to suggest that N30 MM1 is at a similar stageof evolution to this source, but with the MM1b/VLA1/VLA2source at the centre of the disc-like structure probably at an ear-lier stage than the MM1a/VLA3 core, where the N- and S- bear-ing species had more time to evolve.

We observe a small difference in excitation temperature be-tween the O-bearing species and the S- and N- bearing species. Alarger difference is observed for HC3N, H13

2 CO, and t-HCOOH,which seem to trace warmer gas than the other species. Thelow levels of deuteration in N30 MM1 suggest that the grain-surface formation temperature of COMs in the pre-stellar cloudwas warm, that is, ∼30 K, probably the result of radiation fromthe nearby Cyg-OB2 association.

In conclusion, these observations highlight the benefit of be-ing able to observe large frequency ranges simultaneously andat high angular resolution in order to shed light on the phys-ical origin of COMs. Particularly, the frequency coverage en-sures that a large number of species from different chemicalfamilies are covered simultaneously, and the high angular res-olution allows spatial correlations between species to be closelyexamined. This is especially important for the physically com-plex structure of sources such as N30, which complicates ourunderstanding of the origin of COMs. It is therefore importantto study such sources with multiple chemical tracers, and at suf-ficient angular resolution to be able to disentangle the variousphysical and chemical processes taking place. Further analysisof the remaining nine sources in the PILS-Cygnus survey willclearly continue to shed light on their origin.

Appendix A: Observing log

The full observing log is provided in Table A.1. Specifically, thisincludes the observing dates and calibrators used for each nightof the observations. The observing strategy was to observe twoscience targets between a pair of gain observations, and to loopover all ten targets in each track. This ensured uniform sensitiv-ity. Furthermore, a random source was chosen to start each track,to ensure near uniform uv coverage for all sources, and thus sim-ilar image fidelity.

Appendix B: Column density comparison

The column density comparisons with other sources at positions1 and 3 (see Fig. 12) are provided here, with the comparisonat position 2 shown and discussed in the text. There is a slightdifference, as expected from the difference in column densitiesof the different positions, with a slightly better agreement withOrion KL and AFGL 4176 at position 3.

Appendix C: Position–velocity maps

Position–velocity maps of selected molecular lines are presentedin Fig. C.1, with the maps of H2CO and CS shown (Figs. 6and 10 respectively) and discussed in the text. A full kinemat-ics study of the source is beyond the scope of this work, but itis clear from Fig. C.1 that different molecules trace different re-gions in the system, which is also seen in the molecular gradientthat we observe.

Appendix D: Molecular line plots

In this Appendix we present plots of all the lines for each ofthe molecules listed in Table 6, taken at position 2 in Fig. 12,for which we made a model fit. In all the plots, the model isoverplotted in red over the observed spectrum in black. Onlylines detected above 3σ ∼10 K intensity are shown.
