Image Details
Caption: Fig. 4.
Mid‐IR emission from G45.12. The core emission dominates the images at both 12.5 (upper left; ﹩0.4< F< 80﹩ mJy pixel−1) and 20.6 μm (upper right; ﹩4< F< 218﹩ mJy pixel−1). Color temperature (lower left; ﹩105< T_{d}< 150﹩ K, contours at 110, 120, 130, 140, and 150 K) and opacity (lower right; ﹩4.5< \tau _{12.5}< 160\times 10^{-3}﹩, contours at 1.25, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0, ﹩40.0\times 10^{-3}﹩) maps are also shown. KJK 1 is saturated in both flux maps to better show the extended emission.
