A [C II] velocity integrated intensity map overlaid with contours of (a) ATLASGAL870 μm continuumemission. Important offset positions discussed in the text are indicated with triangles of different colors: black represents the secondary ATLASGAL peak deep inside the molecular cloud at (Δ α = −53.0′′, Δ δ =23.0′′), red represents the emission peak of mid-J transitions of ¹²CO and ¹³CO at (Δα = −13.0′′, Δ δ =8.0′′), blue represents the peak of the [C II] 158 μm emission at (Δα =30.0′′, Δ δ = −2.0′′), and light blue represents the clump to the east of Her 36 observed in the channel maps of [C II] at (Δ α =60.0′′, Δ δ =27.0′′). The white arrows point along the molecular cloud in the west to the HII regions in the east of Her 36; (b) VLA 1.3 cm free-free continuum emission; (c) WISE 3.4 μm, and (d) WISE 4.6 μm mid-infrared continuum. Her 36 is the central position denoted with an asterisk. The contour levels are 5% to 95% in steps of 10% of the peak emission for (a) and 10% to 100% in steps of 10% of the peak emission for (b), (c), and (d).
