Scientific paper

Strong molecular hydrogen emission at 2.41 μm has been observed in three out of six reflection nebulae surveyed. A spectrum of one nebula, Parsamyan 18, shows several H2 lines whose intensity ratios have values agreeing with those predicted if the excitation is due to UV-pumped fluorescence and disagreeing with those predicted for shock and X-ray excitations.
