Description
Near infrared observations between 0.7 and 5 microns of the irregular H
II region S 146 are reported. A source found near the center of the
nebula is identified as the exciting star. It is suggested that it is a
young hot star of spectral type O 7 V with a visual extinction of
approximately 16 magnitudes. S 146 is very similar to the axial
symmetric H II region S 106, but the former is at a more advanced stage
of evolution.
