We have observed the Quintuplet- and Arches-cluster regions with the Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) of the Far-Infrared Surveyor (FIS) aboard AKARI to investigate the physical conditions of interstellar matter around the clusters. The FIS-FTS mapping data reveal differences in the spatial distribution among the far-infrared [O III], [N II], and [C II] line emissions near the Arches cluster; ...
