Abstract

This paper presents observations of far infrared fine structure emission lines of OIII at 52 and 88 μm, 0I at 63 μm and NIII at 57 μm, obtained using a balloon borne telescope with a Michelson interferometer system. The sources M42 and M17 have been mapped with a beam of 1.6’ FWHM. Physical quantities derived from these measurements are presented and some of the results are discussed.
