L1448 IRS3 (A, B, &C)L1448 IRS3 (A, B, &C)
Perseus molecular cloud complex (~300 pc) 70" northwest of L1448mm In blue-shifted lobe of outflow of L1448mm Three Class 0 sources resolved at =3mm
(Looney et al. 2000)
One or two outflows (e.g. Bachiller et al. 1990, 1995; Barsony et al. 1998)

Summary and DiscussionSummary and Discussion
Clear results showing two outflows from A and B Marginal detection of polarization in continuum
and CO 2-1 Excellent region for star formation
Nearly perpendicular outflowBinary systemStar formation triggered by outflows
Really perpendicular?
