Outflow and accretion detections in the young stellar object IRAS 04579+4703

We present Submillimeter Array observations of the young stellar object IRAS 04579+4703 in the 1.3 mm continuum and in the 12 CO(2−1), 13 CO(2−1), and C 18 O(2−1) lines. The 1.3 mm continuum image reveals a flattened structure with a mass of 13 M � . The 12 CO(2−1) line map and position-velocity diagram, together with the broad wing (full width = 30 km s −1 )o f the 12 CO(2−1) line, clearly show that there is an outflow motion, which originates from an embedded massive YSO in this region. The lengths of the blue-shifted and red-shifted lobes are 0.14 pc and 0.13 pc, respectively. The total gas mass, average dynamical timescale, and
