Scientific paper

An emission-absorption study of the radio source CL4 has revealed two weak features at -9.3 and -35.6 km/s LSR velocity that may be due to H I absorption. If real, these features imply optical depths of about 0.6. The kinematic distances implied by the features (6.4 and 8.7 kpc) exceed that of the Cygnus Loop (about 1 kpc) by a large factor. However, because of the anomalous H I velocities found in this region, kinematic distances may be meaningless, and a spatial coincidence of CL4 with the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant cannot be completely ruled out.
