Abstract (from CDS):

We present Submillimeter Array (SMA) observations of the massive star-forming region IRAS 20126+4104 in the millimeter continuum and in several molecular line transitions. With the SMA data, we have detected nine molecular transitions, including deuterated hydrogen cyanide, CH3OH, H2CO, and HC3 N molecules, and imaged each molecular line. From the 1.3 mm continuum emission a compact millimeter source is revealed, which is also associated with H2O, OH, and CH3 OH masers. Using a rotation temperature diagram, we derive that the rotational temperature and the column density of CH3 OH are 200 K and 3.7 x1017/cm2, respectively. The calculated results and analysis further indicate that a hot core coincides with IRAS 20126+4104. The position-velocity diagrams of H2 CO (30.3 - 20.2) and HC3N (25-24) clearly present Keplerian rotation. Moreover, H2 CO (30.3 - 20.2) is found to trace the disk rotation for the first time.
