摘要：

We report on a strong outburst of the W 49N H2O maser observed with VERA. Single-dish monitoring with VERA 20 m telescopes detected a strong outburst of the maser feature at V-LSR = -30.7 kms(-1) in 2003 October. The outburst had a duration of similar to 100 days and a peak intensity of 7.9 x 10(4) Jy, being one of the strongest outbursts in W 49N observed so far. VLBI observations with the VERA array were also carried out near to the maximum phase of the outburst, and the outburst spot was identified in the VLBI map. While the map was in good agreement with previous studies, showing three major concentrations of maser spots, we found a newly formed arc-like structure in the central maser concentration, which may be a shock front powered by a forming star or a star cluster. The outburst spot was found to be located on the arc-like structure, indicating a possible connection of the present outburst to a shock phenomenon.
