New 20-cm radio-continuum study of the small Magellanic cloud - part III: Compact Hii regions
We present and discuss a new catalogue of 48 compact Hii regions in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and a newly created deep 1420 MHz (λ=20 cm) radio-continuum image of the N19 region located in the southwestern part of the SMC. The new images were created by merging 1420 MHz radiocontinuu...

description | We present and discuss a new catalogue of 48 compact Hii regions in the
Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and a newly created deep 1420 MHz (λ=20 cm)
radio-continuum image of the N19 region located in the southwestern part
of the SMC. The new images were created by merging 1420 MHz radiocontinuum
archival data from the Australian Telescope Compact Array. The majority of
these detected radio compact Hii regions have rather flat spectral indices
which indicates, as expected, that the dominant emission mechanism is of
thermal nature. |
