the purpose of this proposal is to probe into the origin of a number of protostellar candidates isolated from molecular clouds. these sources were selected from the iras point source catalog as candidates for protostars, and their anti-correlation with molecular materials was found through a comparison of the iras data with our 13co(j=1-0) map obtained for a search for molecular clouds in the cygnus region (80

Mission Description
The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) was the worlds first true orbiting infrared observatory. Equipped with four highly-sophisticated and versatile scientific instruments, it was launched by Ariane in November 1995 and provided astronomers world-wide with a facility of unprecedented sensitivity and capabilities for a detailed exploration of the Universe at infrared wavelengths.
