G305.20+0.21: A very young class II methanol maser source
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 03 August 2017
Abstract
Sensitive radio continuum observations of G305.20+0.21 are performed to look for evidence of an ultracompact HII region. None is found at either 8.64 or 4.8GHz above a 5σ detection limit of about 0.25mJy in both cases. Since G305.20+0.21 is such a bright infrared source, there is a large discrepancy between the expected radio flux and the observed upper limits. This is interpreted as evidence that G305.20+0.21 is a massive protostar traced by a methanol maser site.
