Abstract

We report the results of three-year observations of OH masers at 1665 MHz with characteristic times of flux variations from minutes to hours carried out with the 32-m antenna of Svetloe Radio Astronomical Observatory. It is discovered in W75 as many as four spectral detales with radial velocities of -4.5, +0.6, +5.2 and +5.4 km/s in the both circular polarisatons, emission of wich changed on several tens percent during lower than hour. In the W51 emission of spectral detale was found rater stable. In the W49 we have found three variable detales with radial velocities of +17.1, +18.3 and +18.5 km/s in the right circular polarisation. The most strange were found the flux variations of two detales in the OH spectrum of W3 with radial velocities of -47.6 and -45.1 km/s first discovered by us in 2013 − 2014. These variations have almost sinusoidal form with periods near 24 h and anticorrelated in right and left circular polarisations. We have showed that such variations can not be any of instrumental effects, but for now have not any reasonable explanation.
