Revisiting the formaldehyde masers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Context. The 4.8 GHz formaldehyde (H2CO) masers are one of a number rare types molecular in the Galaxy. There still is not agreement on mechanism responsible for inversion 110−111 transition and conditions under which an can occur, therefore how to interpret masers.

Class I methanol masers: Masers with EGOs
We have compared the results of a number of published class I methanol maser surveys with the catalogue of high-mass outflow candidates identified from the GLIMPSE survey (known as extended green objects or EGOs). We find class I methanol masers associated with approximately two-thirds of EGOs. Although the association between outflows and class I methanol masers has long been postulated on the...
متن کاملCircumstellar masers
Circumstellar masers are unique tools for probing the envelopes around low mass dying stars using VLBI. In this contribution I briefly review the status of our knowledge on these emissions, especially focusing on the latest results obtained by means of VLBI observations. I also outline some of the new windows that will open for VLBI maser research thanks to the upcoming new instrumentation.
متن کاملInterstellar Masers
This report is on interstellar masers with a focus on the quantum mechanical description. First it is discussed how atomic hydrogen in interstellar space would reach an ionization equilibrium. Then it is shown how the excited hydrogen atoms in this equilibrium will ultimately end up in a saturated state. The lifetime of these saturated states is then computed showing that there will be a popula...
متن کاملShell masers
We present the analytical solution of a maser shaped like a spherical shell. We determine the general condition on the size of the central cavity at which a sphere becomes a shell maser, and derive the intensity, beaming angle and observed size of both unsaturated and saturated shells.
متن کاملInhomogeneously broadened spin masers
Hyperpolarized He gas, where the nuclear spin polarization has been increased to several tens of percent by optical pumping, can couple such a large negative resistance into an external circuit that masing can ensue. The masing threshold can be suppressed by application of a magnetic field gradient. However, edge enhancement, that is, the less effective diffusional damping of the precessing mag...
