Abstract
Context. The active star-forming region W33B is a source of OH and H₂O maser emission located in distinct zones around the central object. Aims: The aim was to obtain the complete Stokes pattern of polarised OH maser emission and to trace its variability and to investigate flares and long-term variability of the H₂O maser and evolution of individual emission features. Methods: Observations in the OH lines at a wavelength of 18 cm were carried out on the Nancay radio telescope (France) at a number of epochs in 2008-2014 H₂O line observations (long-term monitoring) at 1.35 cm were performed on the 22 m radio telescope of the Pushchino Radio Astronomy Observatory (Russia) between 1981 and 2014. Results: We have observed strong variability of the emission features in the main 1665- and 1667 MHz OH lines as well as in the 1612 MHz satellite line. Zeeman splitting has been detected in the 1665 MHz OH line at 62 km s^-1 and in the 1667 MHz line at 62 and 64 km s^-1. The magnetic field intensity was estimated to be from 2 to 3 mG. The H₂O emission features form filaments, chains with radial-velocity gradients, or more complicated structures including large-scale ones. Conclusions: Long-term observations of the hydroxyl maser in the W33B region have revealed narrowband polarised emission in the 1612 MHz line with a double-peak profile characteristic of type IIb circumstellar masers. The 30 year monitoring of the water-vapour maser in W33B showed several strong flares of the H₂O line. The observed radial-velocity drift of the H₂O emission features suggests propagation of an excitation wave in the masering medium with a gradient of radial velocities. In OH and H₂O masers some turbulent motions of material are inferred.
