GC_CS10_C5.MCUBE.1.FITS        : FITS file (with data smoothing of 30")
GC_CS10_C5B.MCUBE.1.FITS    : FITS file (with data smoothing of 40")

These are the 3-D cube FITS data of CS J=1-0 emission line
in the Galactic Center region with the NRO 45-m telescope.
The detail descriptions have been presented in "DENSE MOLECULAR
CLOUDS IN THE GALACTIC CENTER REGION I; Observation and Data"
Masato TSUBOI, Toshihiro HAND, and Nobuharu UKITA, ApJS,
vol.120, 1-39, (1999).  If you use these data, please cite
the above reference.

These 3-D FITS files are bound up the channel maps from
-200 to 200 km/s with 5 km/s width in the region of
|L|<15', |B|<15'.  These data are smoothed using a circular
Gaussian weighting function in spatial direction.  The FWHM
of the Gaussian shape are 30" for GC_CS10_C5.MCUBE.1.FITS,
and 40" for GC_CS10_C5B.MCUBE.1.FITS, which is approximately
consistent with original spatial resolution (about 34").
We use TA* in these maps.  If you need TMB, please convert
from TA* to TMB by TMB=TA*/beam eff.(=0.7)/SSB ratio(=0.9).

If you have any question about the data, please tell us
by e-mail, tsuboi@vsop.isas.jaxa.jp.
