Abstract
Excited-state OH maser emission has previously been reported in the circumstellar envelopes of only two evolved stars: the Mira star AU Geminorum and the hypergiant NML Cygni. We present Very Large Array (VLA) observations of the 1665, 1667, and excited-state 4750 MHz main-line OH transitions in AU Gem and Expanded Very Large Array (EVLA) observations of the excited-state 6030 and 6035 MHz OH main-line transitions in NML Cyg. We detect masers in both main-line transitions in AU Gem but no excited-state emission in either star. We conclude that the excited-state OH emission in AU Gem is either a transient phenomenon (such as for NML Cyg, outlined below) or possibly an artifact in the data and that the excited-state OH emission in NML Cyg was generated by an episode of enhanced shock between the stellar mass loss and an outflow of the Cyg OB2 association. With these single exceptions, it therefore appears that excited-state OH emission indeed should not be predicted nor observable in evolved stars as part of their normal structure or evolution. eprintid: arXiv:0707.3788	Comments: Velocity resolution: 0.1 km/s
