AbstractWe present the results of a mm wavelength methanol maser survey towards massive star forming regions. We have carried out Class II methanol maser observations at 86.6 GHz, 86.9 GHz and 107.0 GHz, simultaneously, using the Nobeyama 45 m telescope. We selected 108 6.7 GHz methanol maser sources with declinations above −25 degrees and fluxes above 20 Jy. The detection limit of maser observations was ~3 Jy. Of the 93 sources surveyed so far, we detected methanol emission in 25 sources (27%) and “maser” emission in nine sources (10%), of which thre “maser” sources are new detections. The detection rate for maser emission is about half that of a survey of the southern sky (Caswell et al. 2000). There is a correlation between the maser flux of 107 GHz and 6.7 GHz/12 GHz emission, but no correlation with the “thermal” (non maser) emission. From results of other molecular line observations, we found that the sources with methanol emission show higher gas temperatures and twice the detection rate of SiO emission. This may suggest that dust evaporation and destruction by shock are responsible for the high abundance of methanol molecules, one of the required physical conditions for maser emission.

We have performed high resolution VLA radio observations for several small H II regions, including the cluster emission nebulae S258, S255, S257, and S256. The region (PP56) between S255 and S257 at λ2 cm reveals significant flux structure close to OH, H2O and infrared emitting sources as shown in Figure 1. The flux densities and positions are indicated in Table 1. Observations of the cometary nebula PP59 (S269) also reveal similar characteristics as shown in Figure 2. These regions are considered to be active star-forming clouds. The cometary nebula PP40 was also observed and we note that its physical parameters are very similar to those of a typical planetary nebula.

Water maser emission from star forming regions has been monitored for several decades using the Puschino radio telescope, showing radial velocity variations consistent with material in Keplerian orbit around protostars. MERLIN and the EVN are now being used to image the 22 GHz emission on au scales and measure proper motions. This will distinguish discs from outflows, and provide an estimate of the central mass and possibly orbiting condensations.

AbstractThe dwarf galaxies in the Local Group (LG) reveal a surprising amount of spatial structuring. In particular, almost all non-satellite dwarfs belong to one of two planes that show a very pronounced symmetry. In order to determine if these structures in the LG are dynamically stable or, alternatively, if they only represent transient alignments, proper motion measurements of these galaxies are required. A viable method to derive proper motions is offered by VLBI studies of 22-GHz water (and 6.7-GHz methanol) maser lines in star-forming regions.In 2016, in the framework of the Early Science Program of the Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT), we have conducted an extensive observational campaign to map the entire optical body of all the LG dwarf galaxies that belong to the two planes, at C and K band, in a search for methanol and water maser emission.Here, we outline the project and present its first results on 3 targets, NGC 6822, IC 1613, and WLM. While no luminous maser emission has been detected in these galaxies, a number of interesting weaker detections has been obtained, associated with particularly active star forming regions. In addition, we have produced deep radio continuum maps for these galaxies, aimed at investigating their star forming activity and providing an improved assessment of star formation rates in these galaxies.

To investigate the interaction of the massive stars with the gas and dust in the active star forming region NGC 6357, located in the Sagittarius spiral arm at a distance of 1.7-2.6 kpc (Massey et al. 2001), we analyzed the distribution of the neutral and ionized gas, and that of the dust, based on Hα, [OIII] and [SII] images obtained with the Curtis-Schmidt telescope at CTIO, radio continuum observations at 1.465 MHz obtained with the Very Large Array (NRAO) in the DnC configuration (synthesized beam = 38″), Hi data from the Parkes survey (angular resolution = 15′), CO(1-0) observations obtained with the Nanten radiotelescope at Las Campanas Observatory (angular resolution = 2.7′), and IR images in the four MSX bands (angular resolution = 18.3″).

AbstractWe present H2O masers associated with the massive-star forming region G192 observed with the Japan VLBI network since the year 2005, The spatio-kinematical structure of the maser feature clusters has well persisted since previous observations, in which the masers are associated with two young stellar objects (YSOs) separated by ~1200 AU and expected to be associated with a highly-collimated bipolar jet and an infalling-rotating disk in the northern and southern YSOs, respectively. We estimated a jet speed of ~100 km s−1 and re-estimated a dynamical age of the whole jet to be 5.6×104 years. The spatial distribution of maser Doppler velocities found during the previous and present observations, relative proper motions of H2O maser features in the southern cluster found in the present observations, a relative bulk motion between the two maser clusters are well explained by a model of an infalling-rotating disk with a radius of ~1000 AU and a central stellar mass of ~8 M⊙.
