The environs of the ultracompact HII region G45.45+0.06
Aims. G45.45+0.06 is an ultra-compact HII (UCHII) region that has been extensively studied. It is known that G45.45+0.06 is embedded in a complex of UCHII regions, but to date, the surrounding ISM on a larger spatial scale has not been analyzed. Methods. Using data from large-scale surveys, the Two...

Aims. G45.45+0.06 is an ultra-compact HII (UCHII) region that has been extensively studied. It is known that G45.45+0.06 is embedded in a complex of UCHII regions, but to date, the surrounding ISM on a larger spatial scale has not been analyzed. Methods. Using data from large-scale surveys, the Two Micron All Sky Survey, GLIMPSE, MIPSGAL, MAGPIS and GRS, we performed a multiwavelength study of a region of about 7' × 7' in the vicinity of G45.45+0.06.
