Scattered OH Maser sources in the direction of W49N
Abstract
OH masers spots are observed with the VLBA at 1612, 1665 and 1667 MHz. The orientation of the ellipses resulting from scattering are all nearly aligned perpendicular to the galactic plane. These ordered orientation could be due to the galactic magnetic field.
