Abstract

We briefly review some of the observational characteristics of intense OH masers in massive star-forming regions, and discuss the physical characteristics of the zone in which masers form. We describe a detailed model of the maser zone and outline its predictions for the physical conditions of number density, temperature and bulk motions for 1665, 1667, 1720, 1612, 6035 and 4765 MHz masers. We find, for example, that intense 1665 MHz spots are indicative of cold (
