CENTIMETER AND MILLIMETER EMISSION FROM SELECTED HIGH-MASS STAR-FORMING REGIONS INTRODUCTION
Isolated mode
Typically, one star per core of dense gas
Low-Mass Star-Forming Regions
Clustered mode
A group of stars in a single massive dense core
Low-Mass Star-Forming Regions
High-Mass Star-Forming Regions
Our aim is to study YSOs forming in the surroundings of high-mass stars.
We need to study the gas and dust condensations with:high-angular resolution.high sensitivity.

CENTIMETER AND MILLIMETER EMISSION FROM SELECTED HIGH-MASS STAR-FORMING REGIONS SELECTION CRITERIA
We need candidates to massive protostars Selected from the lists compiled byMolinari et al. 1996 (A&A, 308, 573)Mueller et al. 2002 (ApJS, 143, 469)Sridharan et al. 2002 (ApJ, 634, L57)
• Distance 3.5 kpc
We want to study the surroundings of high-mass star-forming regions.
• IRAS bolometric luminosity 1000 L
• Strong millimeter emission in single-dish (I1.2 mm 100 mJy beam-1)
• Weak centimeter emission (S3.6 cm 10 mJy)
to be sensitive to low-mass condensations of 1 M to select intermediate/high-mass targetsto assures a young evolutionary stage of the massive star-forming regionto assures that the HII region is not evolved enough to have disrupted the surrounding material
For 10 regions we found no available cm & mm data in the literature

CENTIMETER AND MILLIMETER EMISSION FROM SELECTED HIGH-MASS STAR-FORMING REGIONS SUMMARY
• We have studied 10 regions at mm & cm wavelengths
• We have found 12 HII regions, most of them UCHII regions
• In all the cases, a B type star is required to ionize the gas
• We can classify the UCHII regions in different evolutionary stages
• IRAS 00117+6412 is a good candidate to study the surrounding material(a complete study of this source will be presented in Busquet et al.)
