Abstract

The conditions of masing and lasing in the hydrogen recombination lines (HLR) in the disk and outflow of MWC349 are studied. Comparison of the complete set of the observed aphal-lines, with simple models of optically thin spontaneous emission shows that observable HRL masing in this source is limited to the interval of the principal quantum numbers 10-36.
