General Description

The aim of this proposal is to look at the triggered formation of massive
 young stellar objects, observed on the borders of Galactic HII regions. 
This run contains two parts: 

1) Imaging in the PAH2_2 and Q2 bands at several positions towards three different
 Galactic HII regions (RCW 79, RCW 82, RCW 120). 
At some positions (corresponding to the peak of the 1.2-mm continuum emission, observed
 with SIMBA at SEST) no source is visible at 8 microns (at the GLIMPSE detection
 limit). The idea there is to look for embedded YSOs that could be seen with VISIR.
 
On all FCs, the VISIR field centre is indicated by the pink cross 

Calibration is needed in the PAH2_2 and Q2 filters 

2) Spectroscopy in the 7 - 13 micron range for one red source observed on the borders
 of RCW82.

Calibration is needed in the corresponding spectral range

The flux of the source is 0.8 Jy at 8 microns

The guide stars have been choosen using the GuideCam tool with the selection criteria
 of both V<=12 mag and r=5arcmin
