Scientific paper

From the data on 82 IRAS point sources with water-maser emission, it is determined that the sources are of two kinds: H II regions and OH/IR stars. The H II regions are surrounded by dust-gas envelopes in which the dust is heated to tens of degrees K by the UV emission from the central OB stars, emitting around 60 microns. The OH/IR stars have circumstellar envelopes in which the dust is heated to hundreds of degrees and then emitting around 25 microns shorter.
