A detailed study toward the Water fountain IRAS 15445-5449

Abstract

AbstractPost-Asymptotic giant branch (post-ABG) sources with high-velocity spectral features of H2O maser emission detected toward their circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) are known as Water Fountain (WF) nebulae. These are low- or intermediate-mass Galactic stellar sources that are undergoing the late stages of an intense mass-loss process. The velocity and the spatial distribution of the H2O maser spectral features can provide information about the kinematics of the molecular gas component of their CSEs. Hence, …
