    Description: A search has been conducted for radio emission at 11 and 3.7 cm from 46 recent supernovae having accurately determined positions and ages of a few months to 79 years. None of these supernovae was detected at a flux density greater than 5-10 mJy. These negative results cannot be explained by internal absorption and are thus due to intrinsically weak synchrotron emission in young supernova remnants. There are two possibilities: either (1) relativistic particles are accelerated not by the supernova outburst but by processes occurring much later (at least about 75 years) in the remnant or (2) the magnetic field in the young remnants evolves very slowly, in proportion to the inverse square root of time, so that its value in the remnants observed was no more than about 0.002 gauss. The constraints the observations place on these possibilities and on the energy in cosmic rays in young remnants are discussed. Gamma-ray observations at times of no more than about 1 year following an outburst will allow one to discriminate between the two alternative explanations of the radio results.

    Description: Carbon recombination-line emission has been detected at two frequencies from a dark cloud contiguous with the small H II region Sharpless 140. The observations show the dark cloud to be of unusually low temperature and to have a markedly inhomogeneous density distribution, with localized region of high density surrounding one or more embedded stars. The carbon is probably ionized by photons from both the exciting star of S140 and the embedded stars. The dark cloud and S140 apparently represent two stages of star formation which have occurred over a period of at least 500,000 years in adjacent regions of the same dark cloud.

    Description: Observations of Cygnus X-3 were carried out at 2.5 - 7.5 keV, 2.2 micron, 8.1 GHz and 2.7 GHz over a two week period. The X-ray data show the periodic structure which is typical of Cyg X-3. At times the X-ray and infrared measurements show very similar periodic structure, both in phase and shape, while at other times the infrared data show no periodic variability. The radio fluxes were usually low during the period of observation; both the daily average radio flux levels and spectral index remained nearly constant.

    Description: High-sensitivity emission profiles were observed for the transition of C12O16 and C13O16 towards IRC + or - 10216. It appears that the spherically symmetric uniform mass-outflow model proposed by Morris is necessary to describe the line profiles. The outflow appears to be slightly accelerated, having a velocity of 15 km/sec at the edges of the CO cloud, compared with 12 km/sec for the more centrally confined molecules.

    Description: Carbon monoxide emission has been observed toward about 35 galactic reflection nebulae. The peaking of CO temperatures near the hotter stars indicates substantial local heating of the gas and dust by the embedded stars. Wide low-level emission wings are seen on several of the (C-12)O line profiles; these are most plausibly interpreted as due to cloud material accelerated by such processes as radiation pressure from the newborn stars.

    Description: The 2.6-mm lines of (C-12)O and (C-13)O have been observed toward the small galactic diffuse nebulae NGC 1579 (S222) and S239. The H92-alpha recombination line has also been detected from NGC 1579. Toward NGC 1579, evidence was observed for self-absorption in the (C-12)O line. For both regions, high-velocity wings and line broadening are observable in the (C-12)O line; the features observed toward S239 suggest ordered free-fall collapse of a localized region of the cloud onto a newborn stellar cluster. Examination of the available data suggests that NGC 1579 is both a reflection nebula (illuminated by LKH-alpha 101) and an obscured H II region excited by a star of spectral type near B1, while S239 is a reflection nebula or a Herbig-Haro object. The present studies of these regions show that line widening in CO is at least as important an indicator of star-formation activity as enhanced line emission.
