Abstract

IRAS 20126+4104 is an extensively studied high-mass star-forming region with many astrophysical maser lines from methanol and water molecules. The brightest and highly variable is the 6.7 GHz methanol maser transition. We present follow-up studies on this target including the monitoring with the Irbene radio telescope with high-cadence data and European VLBI Network imaging extending the VLBI monitoring to 19 years. We also plan to study the target in the future based on its variability, both in the radio domain (EVN observations are planned for June 2023) and in infra-red with the 1 meter Kagoshima University Telescope operated by Amanogawa Galaxy Astronomy Research Center (AGARC).
