The symbiotic and bipolar nebula M2-9: Morphological variability of the collimated ionized wind arising from the core

We studied the central region of bipolar nebula M 2-9 using radio-continuum observations obtained from the Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA) and the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) interferometers. This work presents new images at similar to 43 GHz (similar to 7.0 mm) and similar to 345 GHz (similar to 0.9 mm) with angular resolutions of similar to 0 ''.047 and 0 ''.09, respectively. The continuum emission at similar to 43 GHz shows an elongated jet-like structure perpendicular to the similar to 345 GHz observation. We conclude that both emissions could correspond to tracing an isothermal collimated fast wind with constant expansion velocity and being driven by the circumstellar ring traced by ALMA. Although this configuration has been discussed within the scope of planetary nebulae models, there is a remarkable fact: the collimated fast wind shows morphological spatial variability. This supports the idea of a symbiotic binary system within the innermost part of M 2-9, which would be composed of a white dwarf and an AGB star. The latter could explain the mirror symmetry observed at larger scales due to their orbital motion.
