Caption: Figure 4.

HCN surface density Σ, stability parameter ﹩\mathcal{Q}﹩, and instability scale ﹩{\lambda }_{c}﹩ (top, middle, and bottom panel, respectively). The two dashed lines in the bottom panel mark the median value within each region, as indicated. The shaded area marks the ringlike structure of intense star formation. The uncertainties in Σ (as described in Section 3.2) are taken into account when deriving ﹩\mathcal{Q}﹩ (see also Section 3.3).
