Caption: Fig. 16.

Far‐IR color‐color plot. Each point represents the colors of a pixel where the 100 μm brightness is more than 40 MJy sr⁻¹. The straight line is the trend implied by the coefficients of the two‐component ISM model (eq. [7]). The crosses connected by lines indicate the expected colors for sources with emissivities ~ν² and temperatures from 16 to 22 K.
