| contents | We present the results of our mosaic observations of a single Class 0 protostar IRAS 15398$-$3359 with Atacama Compact Array (ACA) in the CO $J=2\mbox{-}1$ line. The new observations covering a $\sim\!2'$ square region revealed elongated redshifted and blueshifted components, which are located at distances of $\sim\!30''\mbox{-}75''$ on the northern and southern sides of the protostar, respectively, in addition to the previously observed primary and secondary outflows. These elongated components exhibit Hubble-law like velocity structures, i.e., an increase of velocity with increasing distance from the protostar, suggesting that it is the third outflow associated with the protostar. Besides, a new redshifted component is detected at radii of $\sim\!40''\mbox{-}75''$ on the northwestern side of the protostar. This redshifted component also exhibits a Hubble-law like velocity profile, which could be the counterpart of the secondary outflow mostly detected at blueshifted velocities in a previous study. The three outflows are all misaligned by $\sim\!20\mbox{-}90^\circ$, and the dynamical timescale of the primary outflow is shorter than those of the other outflows approximately by an order of magnitude. These facts hint that the outflow launch direction has significantly changed with time. The outflow direction may change if the rotational axis and the magnetic field are misaligned, or if the dense core is turbulent. We favor the second scenario as the origin of the multiple outflows in IRAS 15398$-$3359 based on a comparison between the observational results and numerical simulations. |
