Scientific paper

We present results from a near-infrared study of CB 3, CB 34, CB 39 and CB 54 as a part of an ongoing project, which is set to determine how Bok globules form, evolve and disperse. Our observations have revealed the presence of active star formation in CB 3, CB 34 and CB 54, by the discovery of new knots in the H2 1-0 S(1) emission line images. We have discovered no indication of star formation in the Bok globule CB 39 which may suggest that this globule is in an early stage of evolution. Meanwhile the globules CB 3, CB 34 and CB 54 are obviously in their later stages of evolution.
