Scientific paper

We mapped the v=1 and v=0 J=2-1 transitions of SiO in Orion-KL with 0.5" angular resolution. The v=1 emission originates from an 80 AU diameter ring of maser spots centered on radio continuum source I, while the v=0 emission appears to delineate a approximately 1000 AU diameter flared disk centered on source I, with long axis perpendicular to the Orion-KL bipolar outflow. The v=0 line has brightness temperatures as high as 3000 K, probably indicating regions of weak maser emission.
