Understanding Accretion Outbursts in Massive Protostars through Maser Imaging
·
Abstract
Two recent extraordinary accretion outbursts in massive protostars, both heralded by maser flares, have impacted our view of star formation. Unraveling the accretion mechanism in such deeply-embedded systems requires larger, more sensitive centimeter wavelength interferometers to image the masing molecular gas simultaneously with the ionized gas.
