Discovery of a molecular outflow, near-infrared jet and HH objects towardsIRAS 06047-1117

We report discovery of a new young stellar object driving a point-symmetric , near-infrared jet and molecular out ow. The YSO is associated with IRAS 0 6047-1117 and is embedded in a dense molecular cloud core located southeast of Orion A. The jet is seen in the H-2 v = 1-0 line at 2.12 mum and extend s over a total length of about similar to0.4 pc. The driving source is opti cally invisible and has near-infrared colors and a spectral energy distribu tion consistent with a Class I source with an estimated luminosity of 6 L-c ircle dot. Two Herbig-Haro objects are seen in H alpha images located close to the positions of maximum H2 emission.
