We studied class I methanol masers in the transition 7_0-6_1 A+ at the frequency 44 GHz with the VLA. The observations on the VLA were made with the angular resolution 0''.1, which was the highest at the moment. It was shown that the masers…

We present the fourth portion of a Galactic Plane survey of methanol masers at 6668 MHz, spanning the longitude range 186 degrees to 330 degrees. We report 207 maser detections, 89 new to the survey. This completes the southern sky part of…

Methanol masers at 6.7 GHz have been found exclusively towards high-mass star forming regions. Recently, some Class 0 protostars have been found to display conditions similar to what are found in hot cores that are associated with massive…

This study uses archival high frequency continuum data to expand the search for Hypercompact HII regions and determine the conditions at which they appear, as this stage high mass star formation is short-lived and rare. We use 23 GHz…

We present the results of the further investigation of the Class II methanol maser emission in the $14_1 - 14_0$ A$^{-+}$ transition at 349.1 GHz discovered in 2016 in the remarkable core S255IR-SMA1, harboring a $\sim$20 M$_\odot$…

Class I methanol masers are believed to be produced in the shock-excited environment around star-forming regions. Many authors have argued that the appearance of various subsets of class I masers may be indicative of specific evolutionary…

Using the Haystack Observatory 37-m radio telescope we have undertaken a search for emission in the 2(0)-3(1)E rotational transition of methanol in its first torsionally excited state (v_t=1) at 44.9 GHz. We examined seven galactic sources…
