Scientific paper

The molecular gas can be photodissociated if it is exposed to intense far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation. Intermediate and high mass stars generate enough flux in the FUV range to produce a significant photodissociation region (PDR) around them. In order to characterize the PDR that forms near these regions high resolution infrared and centimeter wavelength observations are required. Current centimeter-wave telescopes/interferometers offer the required spatial resolution to detect and to study in detail the PDRs in star forming regions. We present a short review of observations of PDRs and discuss the particular case of G111.61+0.37.
