Spectrophotometric observations of very low ionization H II regions in the LMC. (1987). Revista Mexicana De Astronomía Y Astrofísica, 14(1), 178-182. https://astronomia.unam.mx/journals/rmxaa/article/view/1987rmxaa..14..178p
Abstract
Optical spectrophotometric observations of 17 very low ionization H II regions of the LMC are reported. Physical conditions and chemical composition of these objects are derived from the emission line intensities. The average chemical abundances obtained are: log O/H = 8.49±0.08, log N/H = 6.91±0.07 and log S/H = 6.89±0.10. The authors do not find evidence of any composition gradient in the LMC. The H II regions in the vicinity of the detected molecular cloud complexes show higher nebular reddening.Similar Articles
