VLBI Observations of SiO Masers around AH Scorpii
We report the first Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of 43 GHz v=1, J=1–0 SiO masers in the circumstellar envelope of the M-type semi-regular supergiant variable star AH Sco at 2 epochs separated by 12 days in March 2004. These high-resolution VLBA images reveal that the distribution of SiO masers is roughly on a persistent elliptical ring with the lengths of the major and minor axe...
متن کاملVLBI Observations of Water Masers in the Circumstellar Envelope of IRC+60169
Water masers around an AGB star, IRC+60169, were observed at four epochs using the Japanese VLBI networks. The distribution of the maser features is limited in a thick-shell region, which has inner and outer expansion velocities of 7 km s and 14 km s at radii of 25 mas and 120 mas, respectively. The distribution of the red-shifted features exhibits a ring-like structure, the diameter of which i...
متن کاملLetter to the Editor Observations of methanol masers in NGC7538: probable detection of a circumstellar disc
We present VLBI observations of 6.7 and 12.2 GHz methanol masers in the star forming region NGC7538. Our results show the existence of two groups of masers. The first group exhibits a linear velocity gradient and forms a line in our VLBI map which is consistent with a rotating disc of masers seen edge-on around a massive star. The second group of masers are blueshifted with respect to the first...
متن کاملVLBI observations of 6.7 and 12.2 GHz methanol masers toward high mass star-forming regions
We present VLBI observations of 6.7 and 12.2 GHz methanol masers in 14 star-forming regions, namely NGC 7538, S 252, W 75N, W 48, G 31.28+0.06, S 231, S 255, S 269, Mon R2, G 9.62+0.20, Cep A, W 51, G 59.78+0.06 and G 29.950.02. In 10 of these sources, the methanol masers show elongated morphologies in the VLBI map and exhibit linear velocity gradients. These linear structures have lengths of 5...
متن کاملun 2 00 3 Linear Polarization Observations of Water Masers in W 3 IRS 5
We present a magnetic field mapping of water maser clouds in the star-forming region W3 IRS 5, which has been made on the basis of the linear polarization VLBI observation. Using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at 22.2 GHz, 16 of 61 detected water masers were found to be linearly polarized with polarization degrees up to 13 %. Although 10 polarized features were widely distributed in the wh...
