Maps of the dust clouds associated with W3 Main, NGC 1976, NGC 2024, Sgr B2, M17, W49A, and W51A made at 1.3 mm show brightness distributions often very different from those seen in the FIR. These differences imply that the regions of maximum dust temperature generally do not correspond with regions of maximum column density. Flux densities corrected for free-free emission are given. 29 references.
