Resolving the Structure and Kinematics of the BN Object at Resolution

Luis F. Rodríguez, Luis A. Zapata, Paul T. P. Ho

We present sensitive 7 mm observations of the H53 recombination line and adjacent continuum, made toward the Orion BN/KL region. In the continuum we detect the BN object, the ra…
