High Resolution Observations Of 36 Ghz Class I Methanol Masers At Sites Of 6.7 Ghz Class Ii Methanol Masers In Star Forming Regions, Jared Hennen
College of Science and Health Theses and Dissertations
In this thesis we present high angular resolution data on 36 GHz Class I methanol masers associated with sites of 6.7 GHz Class II methanol masers. We observed twenty-three 36 GHz Class I methanol masers in seven star forming regions with the Jansky Very Large Array radio telescope. Our observations have made possible the first high angular resolution maps of 36 GHz masers in several star forming regions, and demonstrated cases where the morphology is highly suggestive of arcs and other structures known to be found at shock interfaces in such regions. The two classes of methanol masers are created …
H20 Maser Observations In W3 (Oh): A Comparison Of Two Epochs, Steven Merriman
H20 Maser Observations In W3 (Oh): A Comparison Of Two Epochs, Steven Merriman
College of Science and Health Theses and Dissertations
We present high resolution observations of 22 GHz H$_{2}$O masers toward the star forming region W3(OH), taken during two epochs using the Very Long Baseline Array telescope. We detected a total of 54 masers in observation BS198A, and 67 in BS198B, arranged in 3 groups. We determined that the observation BS198A took place during a period of quiescence, while BS198B was observed during a flaring period. We interpreted the maser morphology as lying on the eastern (Group 1) and western (Group 3) ends of an outflow, as well as near the outflow base (Group 2). We observed a velocity drift …
