cds-question@unistra.frinterstellar-mediumh-ii-regionsinfrared-sourcesWe have imaged seven nearby star-forming regions, the Rosette Nebula, the Orion Nebula, W3, the Pleiades, G300.2-16.8, S263, and G159.6-18.5, with the Spatial Infrared Imaging Telescope on the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) satellite at 18" resolution at 8.3, 12.1, 14.7, and 21.3{mu}m. The large angular scale of the regions imaged (~7.2-50deg^2^) makes these data unique in terms of the combination of size and resolution. In addition to the star-forming regions, two cirrus-free fields (MSXBG 160 and MSXBG 161) and a field near the south Galactic pole (MSXBG 239) were also imaged. Point sources have been extracted from each region, resulting in the identification over 500 new sources (i.e., no identified counterparts at other wavelengths), as well as over 1300 with prior identifications. The extended emission from the star-forming regions is described, and prominent structures are identified, particularly in W3 and Orion. The Rosette Nebula is discussed in detail. The bulk of the mid-infrared emission is consistent with that of photon-dominated regions, including the elephant trunk complex. The central clump, however, and a line of site toward the northern edge of the cavity show significantly redder colors than the rest of the Rosette complex.2003AJ....126.1423Khttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/126/1423CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toV/114 : MSX6C Infrared Point Source Catalog (Egan+ 2003)J/AJ/122/1844 : MSX and 2MASS cross-correlation in LMC (Egan+, 2001)J/AJ/124/2990 : MSX galaxy observations (Kraemer+, 2002)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/126/1423https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/126/1423http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/AJ/126/1423https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/126/1423https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/126/1423http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/AJ/126/1423GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/AJ/126/1423/id (Identified Compact Sources)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/126/1423/id?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/126/1423/id?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/126/1423/id?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true52.26531.26830560.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/AJ/126/1423/new (New Compact Sources)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/126/1423/new?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/126/1423/new?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/AJ/126/1423/new?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true174.898625-80.02941670.0055555555555555564/1428 5/115 215 384-386 826-827 830 901 903 912-914 2490 2833 5359 5370 5560 5562-5563 5700-5701 5703 5720 5930 8954 6/455 472 474-475 485 487 496-498 511 852-853 855 885 1194 1198 1548-1550 1568-1569 1572 3261-3263 3297-3299 3302-3303 3601-3603 3609 3637 3660 3664 9917 9954-9955 9964 9966-9967 11328-11329 11331 11340-11342 11346 16657 16659 16662-16663 16668-16669 16671 16704 16706-16709 16713-16714 21427 21430-21433 21435 21472 21474-21475 21484 21486-21487 22205 22244 22246-22247 22809 22837 22864 22866-22867 22872 22884 23027 23029-23031 23036-23037 23039 23617 23620 23712 23714-23715 23724 24064 35767 35771 35773-35775 35822 36933 36944-36945 36948-36949 37120 41120 41122 41128 41130 41472https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/AJ/126/1423?format=asciiInfrareddefaultJ/AJ/126/1423/idIdentified Compact SourcesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
