Abstract

Various radio continuum surveys of the Cygnus X region are presented. Detailed classification of the physical parameters of various bright minor sources (DR1, DR2, DR3, DR6, DR7, DR8, DR9, DR10, DR11, DR12, DR13, DR14, DR15, DR16, DR17, DR18, DR19, DR20, DR22, DR23, DR24, DR25 and DR26) is established. The available optical, radio, infrared and molecular maps of the γ-Cygni source (W66 or DR4) and nebula, IC 1318b, c Nebular Complex (W67 or DR5), W75 (W75N-OH, W75S-OH or DR21-OH, DR21) and North American and Pelican Nebular Complex (NGC 7000+IC 5070 or W80 or DR27) are also presented. Detailed classification of their physical parameters is also included.
