The main scientific goal is to detect water maser emission at 9 wavelengths in the range 116-196 microns towards a sample of 4 well studied star-formation regions. The existance of these maser inversions have been predicted by Yates, Field and Gray, in prep (Y94). The solution of the radiative transfer problem was performed using Accelerated Lambda Iteration techniques, which yields precise quantitative solutions. By measuring the fluxes (W m(-2) of these masers we will be able to test the numerical predictions of our model, and place constraints on the density of molecular hydrogen and water, and the kinetic temperature of the molecular gas in the water masing regions.
