Abstract
- Far-infrared maps are presented for three young H II regions in the Cygnus X region. DR 6 and 7 were mapped in the wavelength band from 40 to 250 microns at 1 arcmin resolution, while DR 22 was mapped in the same band and also at 100-250 microns, providing dust temperature and optical depth information. New VLA maps of these sources are also presented. It is concluded that DR 6 and 7 are powered by clusters of late O or early B type stars, with ages 100,000 yr or less, while DR 22 appears to be produced by a single O6 ZAMS star. Existing (C-12)O maps suggest that the formation of these objects occurred near the edges of molecular clouds.
