Research Abstract |
The present research carried out observational studies of the nearest massive star-forming region Orion KL by using VERA, a very long baseline interferometer operated by National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, and ALMA, an international millimeter/submillimeter interferometer just started regular operation. The research mainly focused on the centimeter, millimeter, and submillimeter water emission lines. As the result of the present research, some of the water lines were detected for the first time in Orion KL. Furthermore, the highest spatial resolution observations with VERA and ALMA revealed detailed physical, dynamical and chemical properties of a shocked molecular gas called Compact Ridge and a massive protostar Source I.
