摘要:

四个I类脉泽源在44、84和95 GHz处被探测到,朝向低质量恒星形成区NGC 1333I4A、NGC 1333I2A、HH 25和L1157的化学物质丰富的外流。在36 GHz处发现了另一个脉泽,朝向类似的外流,NGC 2023。新探测到的脉泽的通量密度不超过18 Jy,远低于高质量恒星形成区的强脉泽。NGC 1333 I4A、HH 25和L 1157在44 GHz处的最强峰的亮温均高于2000 K,而NGC 1333 I2A的最强峰的亮温仅为176 K。然而,旋转图分析表明,后者的来源也是一个脉泽。新探测到的脉泽的主要性质与大质量恒星形成区的I类甲醇脉泽相似。前者的脉泽可能是后者的脉泽人口向低亮度的脉泽和相应的YSO的延伸。

英文摘要:

Four Class I maser sources were detected at 44, 84, and 95 GHz toward chemically rich outflows in the regions of low-mass star formation NGC 1333I4A, NGC 1333I2A, HH25, and L1157. One more maser was found at 36 GHz toward a similar outflow, NGC 2023. Flux densities of the newly detected masers are no more than 18 Jy, being much lower than those of strong masers in regions of high-mass star formation. The brightness temperatures of the strongest peaks in NGC 1333I4A, HH25, and L1157 at 44 GHz are higher than 2000 K, whereas that of the peak in NGC 1333I2A is only 176 K. However, rotational diagram analysis showed that the latter source is also a maser. The main properties of the newly detected masers are similar to those of Class I methanol masers in regions of massive star formation. The former masers are likely to be an extension of the latter maser population toward low luminosities of both the masers and the corresponding YSOs.
