The Accretion Discs and Bipolar Jets in Orion KL
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 May 2016
Abstract
The fine structure of active regions in Orion KL has been studied. It is shown that accretion disks and bipolar outflows accompany star formation. The accretion disks are divided into protoplanetary rings. The H2O super maser emission is associated with the rings and bipolar outflows. The surrounding medium (VLSR=7.74 km/s) amplifies the emission within the maser window by more than two orders of magnitude.
