Аннотация:Results of systematic observations of a sample of bright H2O maser sources with fluxes, on average, exceeding 200 Jy in their main spectral feature during April–September 2017 (G25.65+1.05,
G25.825−0.178, G27.184−0.082, G34.403+0.233, G35.20−0.74, G43.8−0.13, G107.30+5.64) are presented. These observations were carried out in preparation for Very Long Baseline Interferometry observations with an array including the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory 22-m radio telescope. All these sources display fairly strong variability during the time interval considered, encompassing fluxes from ∼40 to ∼2300 Jy. A flare reaching ∼17 000 Jy was detected at a velocity of 42.8 km/s in G25.65+1.05 on
September 7, 2017, which subsequently grew to 60 000 Jy at the end of September 2017. This suggests the
presence of compactmaser structures. The velocities covered by various spectral components range from 5
to 20 km/s. In three sources (G25.65+1.05,G25.825−0.178,G35.20−0.74), a general growth in the fluxes of all the spectral features is observed, which may indicate variations in the conditions for pumping by an external source, for example, variations in the infrared flux from a central source or the passage of a shock. Possible evidence for the presence of bipolar outflows or disk structures in G25.65+1.05 is discussed.
