Outflows in the star-formation region near R CrA

Photographs, spectra, and velocities are presented for the Herbig-Haro objects and visible stars associated with the star-formation region near R CrA. The new data are used to discuss the gas outflows in the area. At least two flows are present; one is linked with the bright variable star R CrA, and the second with the IR source near HH 100. The authors direct special attention to HH 101. A star, suggested by others as a source for this Herbig-Haro object, is shown to be only a chance superposition. The velocity and spatial structures HH 101 are complex, but are consistent with condensations inside an expanding shell of material ejected from HH 100IR.
