Scientific paper

Maps of part of SgrA (West) were made, using a 3.5 arcsec diameter beam, in the continuum radiation of 10.5 microns and in the NeII fine structure line at 12.81 microns. There is a strong correlation between the IR continuum sources and the peaks of the line emission, although the line emission has a more marked diffuse component. Many of the IR sources are also positions of high color temperature, and it is argued that this implies that internal sources of luminosity power the discrete sources. There is no evidence for temperature structure at the position of the nonthermal radio sources.
