摘要:

在44 GHz的7_0- 6_1 A+和36 GHz的4_{-1}-3_0 E两个Ⅰ类甲醇脉泽跃迁中,对中低质量恒星形成区的年轻双极外流进行了观测。我们在44 GHz探测到NGC 1333 I2 A、NGC 1333 I4 A、HH 25 MMS和L1157的窄特征,在36 GHz探测到NGC 2023的窄特征。44 GHz谱线的通量密度不超过11 Jy,相应的源光度约为10^{22} erg s{-1},远低于高质量恒星形成区的强脉泽。39个流出地未发现排放。所有在44 GHz探测到的脉泽都位于云层中,其甲醇柱密度为或大于几× 10^{14} cm$^{-2}。未检测到的上限通常为3- 5 μ y的数量级。2004年、2006年和2008年的观测没有发现NGC 1333 I4 A、HH 25 MMS和L1157中44 GHz脉泽的任何显著变化。

英文摘要:

A survey of young bipolar outflows in regions of low-to-intermediate-mass star formation has been carried out in two class I methanol maser transitions: 7_0-6_1A+ at 44 GHz and 4_{-1}-3_0E at 36 GHz. We detected narrow features towards NGC 1333I2A, NGC 1333I4A, HH25MMS, and L1157 at 44 GHz, and towards NGC 2023 at 36 GHz. Flux densities of the lines detected at 44 GHz are no higher than 11 Jy and the relevant source luminosities are about 10^{22} erg s{-1}, which is much lower than those of strong masers in high-mass star formation regions. No emission was found towards 39 outflows. All masers detected at 44 GHz are located in clouds with methanol column densities of the order of or larger than a few x 10^{14} cm$^{-2}. The upper limits for the non-detections are typically of the order of 3--5 Jy. Observations in 2004, 2006, and 2008 did not reveal any significant variability of the 44 GHz masers in NGC 1333I4A, HH25MMS, and L1157.
