Off-arm mini-burst in G34 region?
G34 is a complex region with signposts of different stages of massive star formation (MSF). It may be located in the off-arm region near the kink of the spiral arm. If confirmed, the detected RRL and HCN/HNC together with both water and methanol maser emissions may suggest that star-formation activities in this region could be a mini starburst. We propose multi-epoch observations of three 6.7 GHz methanol masers G34.26+0.15, G33.98-0.02, and G35.03+0.35, to measure their trigonometric parallaxes and proper motions. The expected output can help us to investigate the relation between the MSF activities and locations relative to the spiral arms.
