| Description: |
The Millimetre Astronomy Legacy Team 90 GHz (MALT90) survey aims to characterise the physical and chemical evolution of high-mass clumps. Recently completed, it mapped 90 GHz line emission toward 3246 high-mass clumps identified from the ATLASGAL 870 �m Galactic plane survey. By utilising the broad frequency coverage of the Mopra telescope's spectrometer, maps in 16 different emission lines were simultaneously obtained. Here we describe the �first line catalog of the detected emission, generated by Gaussian profile �fitting to spectra extracted toward each clumps' dust peak. Synthetic spectra show that the catalog has a completeness of >95%, a probability of a false-positive detection of |
