IRAS 2MASS MSX 540 K and 80 K (Walsh et al. 1999)
Arc-like sources: G24.541+00.312 & G23.707-00.198 370 (750) AU 370 (560) AU

Conclusions: • new structures of 6.7 GHz methanol masers were • detected at maps with milliarcsecond resolution (esp. ring), • the arc-like masers were explained well by the bipolar • outflow model, • complex structures arose likely through propagation of • a few shock fronts driven by protostars. • Future work: • further investigation of the ring G23.657-00.127 including • proper motion studies and measurements of the parallax, • high resolution studies of radio continuum and infrared • counterparts.
