摘要:

我们目前的H $_2$ O脉泽发射和无线电连续谱在1.3厘米进行了与澳大利亚望远镜紧凑阵列对两个源,IRAS 16333 $-$ 4807和IRAS 12405 $-$ 6219,编目为行星状星云(PN)的候选人,其中单碟探测H $_2$ O脉泽以前已报告。我们的目标是明确地确认H $_2$ O脉泽与这两个PN候选者的空间关联。我们在这两个场中都探测到了H $_2$ O脉泽辐射,但只有在IRAS 16333 $-$ 4807中脉泽辐射与射电连续谱辐射空间相关。IRAS 16333 $-$ 4807的性质为该天体的PN性质提供了强有力的支持,从而确认它是H $_2$ O脉泽发射PN的第五种已知情况。这个源是双极的,像其他四个已知的H $_2$ O脉泽发射PNe,表明这些源可能属于一个普通的,但在双极PNe的演变阶段短。在IRAS 12405 $-$ 6219中,H $_2$ O脉泽和射电连续辐射彼此不相关,此外,现有的数据表明该源是H II区而不是PN。

英文摘要:

We present simultaneous observations of H$_2$O maser emission and radio continuum at 1.3 cm carried out with the Australia Telescope Compact Array towards two sources, IRAS 16333$-$4807 and IRAS 12405$-$6219, catalogued as planetary nebula (PN) candidates, and where single-dish detections of H$_2$O masers have been previously reported. Our goal was to unambiguously confirm the spatial association of the H$_2$O masers with these two PN candidates. We detected and mapped H$_2$O maser emission in both fields, but only in IRAS 16333$-$4807 the maser emission is spatially associated with the radio continuum emission. The properties of IRAS 16333$-$4807 provide strong support for the PN nature of the object, hereby confirming it as the fifth known case of a H$_2$O maser-emitting PN. This source is bipolar, like the other four known H$_2$O maser-emitting PNe, indicating that these sources might pertain to a usual, but short phase in the evolution of bipolar PNe. In IRAS 12405$-$6219, the H$_2$O maser and radio continuum emission are not associated with each other and, in addition, the available data indicate that this source is an H II region rather than a PN.
