Structure of the W3A Low-density Foreground Region

We present analysis of [O i ] 63 μ m and CO J = 5 − 4 and 8 − 7 multiposition data in the W3A region and use it to develop a model for the extended low-density foreground gas that produces absorption features in the [O i ] and J = 5 − 4 CO lines. We employ the extinction to the exciting stars of the...
