New H2O Masers associated with Main-line OH Masers in the Galactic Longitude Range 3° to 60°

Abstract

A search in the direction of OH masers emitting at 1665 or 1667 MHz has yielded 11 new H20 masers. The new sources are discussed individually. The overall statistics of the search show that out of a total of 55 OH masers in the 3° to 60° galactic longitude range at least 36 have H20 maser counterparts.
