We investigate the kinematics of high mass protostellar objects within the high mass star forming region IRAS 19410+2336. We performed high angular resolution observations of 6.7-GHz methanol and 22 GHz water masers using the MERLIN (Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network) and e-MERLIN interferometers. The 6.7-GHz methanol maser emission line was detected within the $sim$ 16--27 km s$^{-1}$ velocity range with a peak flux density $sim$50 Jy. The maser spots are spread over $sim$1.3 arcsec on the sky, corresponding to $sim$2800 au at a distance of 2.16 kpc. These are the first astrometric measurements at 6.7 GHz in IRAS 19410+2336. The 22-GHz water maser line was imaged in 2005 and 2019 (the latter with good astrometry). Its velocities range from 13 to $sim$29 km s$^{-1}$. The peak flux density was found to be 18.7 Jy and 13.487 Jy in 2005, and 2019, respectively. The distribution of the water maser components is up to 165 mas, $sim$350 au at 2.16 kpc. We find that the Eastern methanol masers most probably trace outflows from the region of millimetre source mm1. The water masers to the West lie in a disc (flared or interacting with outflow/infall) around another more evolved millimetre source (13-s). The maser distribution suggests that the disc lies at an angle of 60$^{circ}$ or more to the plane of the sky and the observed line of sight velocities then suggest an enclosed mass between 44 M$_{odot}$ and as little as 11 M$_{odot}$ if the disc is edge-on. The Western methanol masers may be infalling.

22 GHz water and 6.7 GHz methanol masers are usually thought as signposts of early stages of high-mass star formation but little is known about their associations and the physical environments they occur in. The aim was to obtain accurate positions
and morphologies of the water maser emission and relate them to the methanol maser emission recently mapped with Very Long Baseline Interferometry. A sample of 31 methanol maser sources was searched for 22 GHz water masers using the VLA and observed in the 6.7 GHz methanol maser line with the 32 m Torun dish simultaneously. Water maser clusters were detected towards 27 sites finding 15 new sources. The detection rate of water maser emission associated with methanol sources was as high as 71%. In a large number of objects (18/21) the structure of water maser is well aligned with that of the extended emission at 4.5 $mu$m confirming the origin of water emission from outflows. The sources with methanol emission with ring-like morphologies, which likely trace a circumstellar disk/torus, either do not show associated water masers or the distribution of water maser spots is orthogonal to the major axis of the ring. The two maser species are generally powered by the same high-mass young stellar object but probe different parts of its environment. The morphology of water and methanol maser emission in a minority of sources is consistent with a scenario that 6.7 GHz methanol masers trace a disc/torus around a protostar while the associated 22 GHz water masers arise in outflows. The majority of sources in which methanol maser emission is associated with the water maser appears to trace outflows. The two types of associations might be related to different evolutionary phases.
We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) 1.35 mm subarcsecond angular resolution observations toward the LkH{alpha} 234 intermediate-mass star-forming region. The dust emission arises from a filamentary structure of $sim$5 arcsec ($sim$4500 au) enclosing
VLA 1-3 and MM 1, perpendicular to the different outflows detected in the region. The most evolved objects are located at the southeastern edge of the dust filamentary structure and the youngest ones at the northeastern edge. The circumstellar structures around VLA 1, VLA 3, and MM 1 have radii between $sim$200 and $sim$375 au and masses in the $sim$0.08-0.3 M$_{odot}$ range. The 1.35 mm emission of VLA 2 arises from an unresolved (r$< 135$ au) circumstellar disk with a mass of $sim$0.02 M$_{odot}$. This source is powering a compact ($sim$4000 au), low radial velocity ($sim$7 km s$^{-1}$) SiO bipolar outflow, close to the plane of the sky. We conclude that this outflow is the large-scale counterpart of the short-lived, episodic, bipolar outflow observed through H$_2$O masers at much smaller scales ($sim $180 au), and that has been created by the accumulation of the ejection of several episodic collimated events of material. The circumstellar gas around VLA 2 and VLA 3 is hot ($sim$130 K) and exhibits velocity gradients that could trace rotation. There is a bridge of warm and dense molecular gas connecting VLA 2 and VLA 3. We discuss the possibility that this bridge could trace a stream of gas between VLA 3 and VLA 2, increasing the accretion rate onto VLA 2 to explain why this source has an important outflow activity.
We present the results of unbiased 22 GHz H2O water and 44 GHz class I CH3OH methanol maser surveys in the central 7x10 arcmin area of NGC 1333 and two additional mapping observations of a 22 GHz water maser in a ~3x3arcmin area of the IRAS4A region.
In the 22 GHz water maser survey of NGC 1333 with sensitivity of sigma~0.3Jy, we confirmed masers toward H2O(B) in the region of HH 7-11 and IRAS4B. We also detected new water masers at ~20arcsec away in the western direction of IRAS4B or ~25arcsec away in the southern direction of IRAS4A. We could not however find young stellar objects or molecular outflows associated with them. They showed two different velocity components of ~0 and ~16 km/s, which are blue- and red-shifted relative to the adopted systemic velocity of ~7 km/s for NGC 1333. They also showed time variabilities in both intensity and velocity from multi-epoch observations and an anti-correlation between the intensities of the blue- and the red-shifted velocity components. We suggest that the unidentified powering source of these masers might be in the earliest evolutionary stage of star formation before the onset of molecular outflows. Finding this kind of water masers is only possible by an unbiased blind survey. In the 44 GHz methanol maser survey with sensitivity of sigma~0.5 Jy, we confirmed masers toward the IRAS4A2 and the eastern shock region of the IRAS2A. Both sources are also detected in 95 and 132 GHz methanol maser lines. In addition, we had new detections of methanol masers at 95 and 132 GHz toward IRAS4B. In terms of the isotropic luminosity, we detected the methanol maser sources brighter than ~5x1025 erg/s from our unbiased survey.
Intriguing work on observations of 4.83 GHz formaldehyde (H2CO) absorptions and 4.87 GHz H110a radio recombination lines (RRLs) towards 6.7 GHz methanol (CH3OH) maser sources is presented. Methanol masers provide ideal sites to probe the earliest sta
ges of massive star formation, while 4.8 GHz formaldehyde absorptions are accurate probes of physical conditions in dense $(10^{3} - 10^{5} cm^{-3})$ and low temperature molecular clouds towards massive star forming regions. The work is aimed at studying feature similarities between the formaldehyde absorptions and the methanol masers so as to expand knowledge of events and physical conditions in massive star forming regions. A total of 176 methanol maser sources were observed for formaldehyde absorptions, and formaldehyde absorptions were detected 138 of them. 53 of the formaldehyde absorptions were newly detected. We noted a poor correlation between the methanol and formaldehyde intensities, an indication that the signals (though arise from about the same regions) are enhanced by different mechanisms. Our results show higher detection rates of the formaldehyde lines for sources with stronger methanol signals. The strongest formaldehyde absorptions were associated with IRAS sources and IRDCs that have developed HII regions, and that do not have EGOs.
We present a simultaneous single-dish survey of 22 GHz water maser and 44 GHz and 95 GHz class I methanol masers toward 77 6.7 GHz class II methanol maser sources, which were selected from the Arecibo methanol maser Galactic plane survey (AMGPS) cata
log.Water maser emission is detected in 39 (51%) sources, of which 15 are new detections. Methanol maser emission at 44 GHz and 95 GHz is found in 25 (32%) and 19 (25%) sources, of which 21 and 13 sources are newly detected, respectively. We find 4 high-velocity (> 30 km/s) water maser sources, including 3 dominant blue- or redshifted outflows.The 95 GHz masers always appear with the 44 GHz maser emission. They are strongly correlated with 44 GHz masers in velocity, flux density, and luminosity, while they are not correlated with either water or 6.7 GHz class II methanol masers. The average peak flux density ratio of 95 GHz to 44 GHz masers is close to unity, which is two times higher than previous estimates. The flux densities of class I methanol masers are more closely correlated with the associated BGPS core mass than those of water or class II methanol masers. Using the large velocity gradient (LVG) model and assuming unsaturated class I methanol maser emission, we derive the fractional abundance of methanol to be in a range of 4.2*10^-8 to 2.3*10^-6, with a median value of 3.3pm2.7*10^-7.
