Scientific paper

The OH and H2O masers found by high-sensitivity searches in the evolved star-forming region Sgr B1 indicate that stars continue to form. It is unlikely that all such masers are associated with evolved stars, both because of the absence of OH maser emission and a maser surface density 3 times greater than that of evolved stars having associated masers; most of the H2O masers in Sgr B1 are therefore probably located near the formation sites of intermediate or low mass stars. H2O masers are shown to be useful tools in the investigation of such stars' formation, in regions near the Galactic center.
