Measurements of the 616 → 523 line of H2O at 1.3 cm in the Orion region of star formation are reported. With a spatial resolution of ≈ 01, H2O maser emission was detected in two regions: Orion BN/KL and Orion S. The well-known masers in the BN/KL region are distributed in a 30'' by 30'' area. The "shell" masers, within the BN/KL region, are distributed

The Polarized Water Maser in Orion [PDF]
We present the results of 12 years of observations of the 8 km s−1 water maser in Orion. Four large flares in the flux density were observed, as well as variability in the degree and angle of polarization. The profile of the line is also variable, indicating the superposition of several sources.

Photometric Study of Galaxies with Water and without Detected Water Masers in Different Spectal Ranges [PDF]
Studies of water masers in other galaxies play an important role in various fields of astronomy, but the probability of detection of these masers is extremely low.

Discovery of SiO Masers in the "Water Fountain" Source IRAS 16552-3050 [PDF]
In this paper, we report new detections of SiO v = 1 and v = 2 J = 1 -> 0 masers in the "water fountain" source IRAS 16552-3050, which was observed with the Nobeyama 45 m telescope during 2021 March-April.

Interacting masers and the extreme brightness of astrophysical water masers
Extreme surface brightnesses have long been reported for water masers which are well beyond what is found in self-consistent, theoretical investigations of these masers. The transport of maser radiation is calculated when two masers, having the properties inferred for the numerous weaker masers and separated by distances characteristic of the molecular

Probing AGN with Water Masers [PDF]
Observations of the angular distribution of the water masers in the nucleus of NGC4258 reveal the presence of a thin molecular disk in nearly perfect Keplerian orbit (Miyoshi et al., 1995; Moran et al., 1995). About 300 galaxies have been searched for nuclear water masers to a limiting sensitivity of about 0.1 Jy (e.g., Braatz, 1996); and 16 masers ...

Supersonic Water Masers in 30 Doradus
We report on extremely high velocity molecular gas, up to -80 km/s relative to the ambient medium, in the giant star-formation complex 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), as observed in new 22 GHz H2O maser emission spectra obtained with the Mopra radio telescope.

A water maser flare in W49N [PDF]
We report the results of our short time scale monitoring observations of W49N. Three water maser features were found to show obvious variations in flux density, line width and center velocity. Over a period of about 22 days, the -88.3, -56.9 and -12.8 km s(-1) features declined linearly in flux density at rates of 57, 113, 98.8 Jy per day, respectively.

A model for extremely powerful extragalactic water masers [PDF]
The reasons for the differences between extremely powerful extragalatic water masers (EPEWMs) and strong Galactic H/sub 2/O masers are discussed. This model quite successfully explains many important characteristics of EPEWMs; the rapid time variations ...
