Scientific paper

RCW 106, a high-mass star-forming complex, two compact H II regions and a CO clump have been observed in the far infrared (at 150 and 210 µ) using the TIFR 1 m balloon-borne telescope. Maps of intensity, dust temperature and optical depth with ~ 1'.3 resolution were obtained. Using 23 sources in the RCW 106 complex, the slope of the IMF is found to be -1.73+/-0.5. From ISO observations, fluxes in the PAH bands have been obtained for the 3 compact sources. Radiation transfer calculations have been performed for modeling the spectral energy distributions.
