Abstract
We present the results of high-resolution mid-infrared observations of the source NGC 3576 IRS 1. Near diffraction-limited images were taken at the Gemini South Observatory through OSCIR's filters N, 7.9, 9.8, 12.5 and IHW18. The source IRS 1 was resolved into 3 sources for the first time at mid-infrared wavelengths. For each source we constructed the SED from 1.25 to 18 microns, as well the color temperature and the spatial distribution of the dust in the region. The optical depth of the silicate absorption feature at 9.8 microns is presented also.
