Results are presented of absorption measurements of the H II regions IC 405 and IC 410 obtained at five freequencies between 12.6 and 25 MHz with 0.5-1.0 deg resolution using the UTR-2 radio telescope. The average nonthermal radiation density of the interstellar medium at 12.6 MHz toward IC 405 is determined to be 135 K/pc, whereas it is found to be 37 K/pc toward IC 410. It is found that the kinetic temperature of IC 410 is 11,000 K and that the electron density is approximately 12/cu cm. Calculations are presented for several other physical parameters toward the center of IC 410: optical depth at 25 MHz = 8, emission measure = 8,000 pc/cm exp 6, and mass = 3400 solar masses.
