Mid-infrared imaging and spectroscopy of the southern H II region RCW 38

We present mid-infrared images and an 8-13 μm spectrum of the southern H II region RCW 38. We determine the dust colour temperature from both our spectrum and images at 10 and 20 μm, and deduce the gas excitation from an image in the [S IV] fine-structure line, as well as spectra of the [Ar III], [S...
