CH_3_OH & OH line emission from Galactic center
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Class I methanol masers are collisionally pumped and are generally correlated with outflows in star-forming sites in the Galaxy.
Description
Using the Very Large Array in its A-array configuration, we present a spectral line survey to identify methanol J=4_-1_->3_0_E emission at 36.169GHz. Over 900 pointings were used to cover a region 66'x13' along the inner Galactic plane.
A shallow survey of OH at 1612, 1665, 1667, and 1720MHz was also carried out over the area covered by our methanol survey. We provide a catalog of 2240 methanol masers with narrow line-widths of ~1km/s, spatial resolutions of ~0.14"x0.05", and rms noises ~20mJy/beam per channel. Lower limits on the brightness temperature range from 27000 to 10000000K, showing that the emission is of non-thermal origin.

We also provide a list of 23 OH (1612), 14 OH (1665), 5 OH (1667), and 5 OH (1720MHz) masers. The origin of such a large number of methanol masers is not clear. Many methanol masers appear to be associated with infrared dark clouds, though it appears unlikely that the entire population of these masers traces the early phase of star formation in the Galactic center.
