Scientific paper

The detection of high-velocity wings on the CO profile observed toward Cepheus A, a region of star formation in the Cepheus OB3 association, is reported. The velocity extent of the emission is approximately 50 km/s. The blueshifted and redshifted wings have peaks of emission which are spatially separated by approximately 90 arcsec (0.3 pc), suggesting an anisotropic outflow in two opposite directions.
