Scientific paper

The authors report the time behaviour of the 8 km s-1 water maser source in Orion during the period of August 1979 - November 1985. Four flares were detected, with rise times of the order of a month and decay times of the order of several months to a year. The source presented a high degree of linear polarization (40% - 60%), independent of the value of the intensity. The polarization angle varied between -3° and -36°, imposing constraints on possible models of the emitting region.
