Scientific paper

Non-LTE calculations have been performed for para-H2O. The coupled set of statistical and radiative transfer equations has been solved numerically in an on-the-spot approximation. The authors used a physical model in which the excitation is basically due to collisions. The results indicate that when the combined influence of resonant collisions with H2 molecules in the (J = 2)-state and absorption of IR-photons by cold dust are taken into account, fairly strong maser emission at 1.635 mm and 922 μ is to be expected from regions of star formation.
