Abstract

We present the results of a multi-wavelength line and continuum study of the brightrimmed cloud SFO 75 in an attempt to determine whether the ionisation front and its associated shocks, driven by the nearby O star, have riggered the formation of a new generation of stars
within this bright-rimmed cloud.
