摘要:

本文给出了NGC 1333中心7 × 10弧分区域22 GHz水脉泽和44 GHz I类CH 3OH甲醇脉泽的无偏观测结果,以及IRAS 4A区域~ 3 × 3弧分区域22 GHz水脉泽的两个附加测绘观测结果。在灵敏度为0.3Jy的NGC 1333 22 GHz水脉泽巡天中,我们确认了HH 7-11和IRAS 4 B区存在朝向H2O(B)的脉泽。我们还在IRAS 4 B的西向约20角秒或IRAS 4A的南向约25角秒处发现了新的水脉泽。然而,我们无法找到年轻的恒星物体或与它们相关的分子流出。它们显示了~0和~16 km/s两种不同的速度分量,相对于NGC 1333采用的~7 km/s的系统速度,它们发生了蓝移和红移。他们还显示了来自多历元观测的强度和速度的时间变化,以及蓝移和红移速度分量强度之间的反相关性。我们认为,这些脉泽的不明电源可能是在最早的恒星形成的分子外流开始之前的演化阶段。要找到这种水脉泽,只能通过无偏盲测。在灵敏度σ ~ 0.5Jy的44 GHz甲醇脉泽巡天中,我们确认了IRAS 4A 2和IRAS 2A东激波区的脉泽。在95和132 GHz甲醇脉泽谱线中也检测到这两个源。此外,我们有新的甲醇脉泽在95和132 GHz的IRAS 4 B的检测。在各向同性光度方面,我们从我们的无偏测量中检测到了亮度大于~ 5 × 10 ~(25)erg/s的甲醇脉泽源。

英文摘要:

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.
