We have made observations of the four hyperfine transitions of the 2Π3/2, J=3/2 ground state of OH at 1612, 1665, 1667 and 1720 MHz and the related 1.6-GHz continuum emission, towards NGC 6334 using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The observations covered all the major radio continuum concentrations aligned along the axis of NGC 6334 (V, A to F). We have detected seven OH masers plus a p...

We have carried out a series of observations of the 1665and 1667-MHz transitions of the Π3/2, J=3/2 OH ground state towards six selected HII regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (IRAS 05011-6815 and MRC 0510-689, 0513-694B, 0539-691, 0540-696B, 0540697A) using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The study has provided the first accurate positions for known 1665and 1667-MHz OH masers as well...

We present OH maser observations at 1612, 1665, 1667, and 1720 MHz for 86 post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) stars selected from a survey of 1612 MHz maser sources in the Galactic Plane. The observations were taken with the Parkes Telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array between 2002 September and 2003 August. Post-AGB stars are the precursors to planetary nebulae, the diverse m...
