Scientific paper

An H300-alpha recombination line (242 MHz) has been detected in the direction of the galactic center. It is probably due to stimulated emission from very extended low-density H II regions, whose presence in the line of sight to the galactic center has recently been confirmed by detection of the H200-beta line. Upper limits on the line intensity towards Cas A imply for the cold H I clouds in that direction either a very low hydrogen ionization rate (less than 2 by 10 to the -17th power per sec) or a very high molecular concentration.
