dc.descriptionMillimeter and mid-infrared observations have been made of the dense clumps of dust and gas and of young stellar objects (YSOs) associated with the bright, compact submillimeter source G79.3+0.3 P1 in the relatively nearby MSX infrared-dark cloud G79.3+0.3. The Gemini mid-infrared observations reported here indicate the presence of three YSOs within the cloud. BIMA 3 mm continuum observations show that the brightest of the YSOs is likely to be a Herbig Ae/Be star. High-angular-resolution molecular-line observations suggest that a wind from this star may be triggering collapse in the adjacent molecular cloud. The submillimeter source G79.3+0.3 P1 itself does not contain infrared sources and may represent an earlier stage of star formation.
