Line maps, velocity-integrated over 1.2 × FWHM[C II] = 482 km s−1 at the expected frequencies of [C II]158 μm, [N II]205 μm, and [O I]146 μm, and assuming the [C II]158 μm redshift. For each line, we also plot two additional collapsed maps, centered at ± 482 km s−1 away from the line emission. For [O I]146 μm, only one of the adjacent maps is empty, as the emission is at the edge of the band. On the central [C II]158 μm map, we plot the quadrants used for the spatial extension analysis in Section 4.2. The contours are logarithmic ( − 4, − 2, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32)σ (rms).
