The molecular environment of massive star forming cores associated with Class II methanol maser emission
Methanol maser emission has proven to be an excellent signpost of regions undergoing massive star formation (MSF). To investigate their role as an evolutionary tracer, we have recently completed a large observing program with the ATCA to derive the dynamical and physical properties of molecular/ionised gas towards a sample of MSF regions traced by 6.7GHz methanol maser emission. We find that th...
متن کاملPumping of Class II methanol masers
We present large velocity gradient (LVG) model calculations which explain the observed intensities (> 1012 K) of the 51−60 A+ methanol line at 6 GHz, which is the brightest of the strong Class II methanol masers. Our model of radiative transfer in the maser source was described in the first paper of this series devoted to the excitation of the 20−3−1 E transition at 12 GHz (Sobolev & Deguchi, 1...
متن کاملShort - period variability in the Class II methanol maser source G 12 . 89 + 0 . 49 ( IRAS 18089 - 1732 )
Time series are presented for the class II methanol maser source G12.89+0.49, which has been monitored for nine years at the Hartebeesthoek Radio Astronomy Observatory. The 12.2 and 6.7 GHz methanol masers were seen to exhibit rapid, correlated variations on timescales of less than a month. Daily monitoring has revealed that the variations have a periodic component with a period of 29.5 days. T...
متن کاملPolarisation of Class II Methanol Masers
We have used the University of Tasmania Mt Pleasant 26-m radio telescope to investigate the polarisation characteristics of a sample of strong 6.7GHz methanol masers, the first spectral line polarisation observations to be undertaken with this instrument. As part of this process we have developed a new technique for calibrating linear polarisation spectral line observations. This calibration me...
متن کاملMethanol Maser Polarization in W3(OH)
We present the first 6.7 GHz methanol maser linear polarization map of the extended filamentary maser structure around the compact H region W3(OH). The methanol masers show linear polarization up to ∼ 8 per cent and the polarization angles indicate a magnetic field direction along the North-South maser structure. The polarization angles are consistent with those measured for the OH masers, ta...
