Submillimeter/millimeter observations of the high-mass star forming region IRAS 22506+5944

The mapping observations of CO $J=2-1$, CO $J=3-2$, $^{13}$CO $J=2-1$ and $^{13}$CO $J=3-2$ lines in the direction of IRAS 22506+5944 have been made. The results show that the cores in the $J=2-1$ transition lines have a similar morphology to those in the $J=3-2$ transition lines. Bipolar molecular outflows are verified. The prior IRAS 22506+5944 observations indicated that two IRAS sources and three H$_{2}$O masers were located close to the peak position of the core. One of the IRAS sources may be the driving source of the outflows. In addition, the H$_{2}$O masers may occur in relatively warm environments. The parameters of the dense core and outflow, obtained by the LTE method, indicate that IRAS 22506+5944 is a high-mass star formation region.
