Scientific paper

We have conducted phase-reference VLBI observations of H2O and CH3OH masers toward two high-mass star forming regions, Sh 2-255 IR and AFGL 5142. In Sh 2-255 infrared water masers are aligned along a direction close to the orientation of a large scale H2 jet, tracing possibly shocked material in a precessing jet, or, alternatively, the disk-wind emerging from the disk atmosphere. In AFGL 5142 water masers trace expansion at the base of a protostellar jet, whilst methanol masers are more probably tracing infalling than outflowing gas. Our results suggest that water and methanol masers trace different kinematic structures in the circumstellar gas.
