Abstract. Astrophysical masers are one of the most readily detected
signposts of high-mass star formation. Their presence indicates special
conditions, probably indicative of a specific evolutionary phase. Masers
also represent the ultimate high-resolution probe of star formation with
the potential to reveal information on the kinematics and physical con-
ditions within the region at milli-arcsecond resolution. To date this po-
tential has largely remained unfulfilled, however, recent advances suggest
that this will soon change.
The key to unlocking the potential of masers lies in identifying where
they fit within the star formation jigsaw puzzle. I will review recent high
resolution observations of OH, water and methanol maser transitions and
what they reveal. I also briefly discuss how multi-transition observations
of OH and methanol masers are being used to constrain maser pumping
models and through this estimate the physical conditions in the masing
region.
1. Introduction
Masers are one of the most readily observable signposts of massive star formation
and they possess characteristics that mean they have the potential to be very
powerful high-resolution probes of these regions. Towards massive star forming
regions strong masers are frequently observed from the main-line transitions of
OH (Caswell, Haynes Goss 1980), the 22 GHz transition of H2O (Comoretto
et al. 1990) and the 6.7 GHz (Menten 1991) and 12.2 GHz (Batrla et al. 1987)
transitions of methanol. They are more rarely observed from SiO (see Greenhill
et al. these proceedings), H2CO (Hoffman et al. 2003) and NH3 (Mauersberger
