Proposal Title: An Arecibo Survey for H2CO Masers toward Non­Massive Star Forming Regions
ABSTRACT:
At present, formaldehyde (H 2 CO) 6 cm masers have been detected only toward 7 regions in the Galaxy; in all cases
the masers have been found toward massive star forming regions. Given that the first H 2 CO masers were found in
regions of massive star formation, the subsequent surveys have targeted primarily this kind of objects, and no
dedicated survey has been conducted toward non­massive star forming regions. We propose to conduct the first
survey exclusively focused on the search for H 2 CO masers toward non­massive star forming regions.
