Scientific paper

The Onsala VLBI group has been conducting an extensive study of the Northern hemisphere methanol masers using the European VLBI Network (EVN) and the VLBA since early 1997. Fifteen well known high mass star-forming regions have been imaged at 6.7 GHz and 12.2 GHz. In parallel, a blind survey of the Galactic plane has been undertaken in order to discover new 6.7 GHz methanol masers using the Onsala-25m antenna, as well as a search for new class II methanol maser lines at higher frequencies (85-112 GHz). This thesis reports the results in these three observational projects and shows that methanol masers are excellent tracers of early stages in the process of massive star formation.
