Kinematics of YSO Molecular Hydrogen Outflows

As part of an on-going kinematical survey of molecular outflows, we describe observations of the 2.12 mu m line of H[2] for objects such as OMC-1, HH 211, HH 212, DR 21, Ceph A and S187-IR . The observations were made with the CAMILA IR-camera and an imaging Fabry-Pérot etalon at the 2.12 m telescope of the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional in San Pedro Mártir. A 22 km s-1 (FWHM) resolution allows us to determine the global kinematics of these sources. We show that many of them are consistent with theoretical models such as the jet driven molecular outflow paradigm. A flux versus velocity relation, similar to the one observed for CO outflows, is revealed by H[2] velocity structure.
