Ionized gas in the region between W5-E and W5-W. The NVSS radio-continuum contours at 20-cm (contour levels 0.002, 0.005, 0.0075, 0.01, and 0.015 Jy/beam) are superimposed on a grey-scale image of the Hα emission. The Hα image has been obtained at the 1.2-m telescope of the Observatoire de Haute Provence. Two H ii regions are present in this field, excited by the stars ex1 and BD+60596. Radio continuum emission is also observed at the border of a bright rim.
