Abstract
AbstractA key ingredient in the earliest evolutionary phase of high-mass (M>8 M⊙) star formation (HMSF) is the presence of a jet/outflow system. To study its role in HMSF, we have carried out high resolution (0.1″) VLA K-band (18-26.5 GHz) observations toward IRAS 19035+0641 A, identified as a high-mass protostellar jet candidate based on previous cm continuum data. Our observations resolve the continuum emission into an elongated structure in the NE-SW direction, confirming that the K-band continuum arises from an ionized jet. Furthermore, we detected several 22.2 GHz H2O maser spots aligned in a direction consistent with the jet axis. Zeeman splitting was detected in the strongest maser spot. In this paper, we present our results and discuss the implications of our findings.
