Abstract

AbstractWe present simultaneous observations of continuum (3.5 and 1.3cm) and water maser line emission (1.3cm) carried out with the VLA-A toward the high-mass object IRAS 23139+5939. We detected two radio continuum sources at 3.5cm separated by 0”5 (~2400 AU), I23139 and I23139S. Based on the observed continuum flux density and the spectral index, we suggest that I23139 is a thermal radio jet associated with a high-mass YSO. On the other hand, based on the spatio-kinematical distribution of the water masers, together with the continuum emission information, we speculate that I23139S is also a jet source powering some of the masers detected in the region.
