Abstract

Based on the long-term monitoring data of the water maser since 2019.0 to 2021.0 allowed us detecting in IRAS 16293-2422 two powerful phenomena lasted about year at radial velocities near 6 and 8 km s$^{-1}$. In both cases, powerful short flares were located on the tops of less powerful, but more prolonged ones (2.5 and 0.5 kJy), radiation of which initiated the emission of more powerful flares. For the first time, configurations of several emitting maser spots located at the line of sight to the observer were discovered experimentally. This made it possible to confirm the hypothesis of activation of the water maser, based on an increase in the amplification length of the maser due to several maser condensations located at the line of sight to the observer. The unsaturated state of the most powerful and shortest maser flares, as well as the saturated state of the weak, has been established. New important parameters of the water maser and the assumed location of the maser spots have been obtained.<br />12 pages, 5 pdf figures, uses jcappub.sty
