Scientific paper

The authors searched for H2O masers toward 61 red stars in the IRAS point-source catalog. Ten H2O maser sources, roughly equally divided between pre- and post-main-sequence stars, were detected. A few may be "transition objects" that are evolving rapidly from red giants to planetary nebulae. One of these IRAS 1634-3814, has a very large positive radial velocity, VLSR ≡ 140 km s-1, although it lies in a direction where differential galactic rotation would be expected to produce negative radial velocities. The H2O radial velocities imply large kinematic distances for some of the stars.
