Structure and variability of astrophysical masers
We propose high-resolution observations of 2 methanol maser sources G32.03+0.06, G35.20-1.74 (W48) at 6.7 GHz using the European VLBI Network (EVN). These masers have been systematically monitored over the past five years with the Irbene 16 m and 32 m radio telescopes [1]. Selected sources have different variability types periodic, quasi-periodic, long-term dimming. Our primary objectives are to investigate the proper motions, variability mechanisms, source morphology, and cloudlet structure evolution of these masers. We aim to identify the physical processes driving maser variability and improve our understanding of the underlying astrophysical conditions.
