Abstract

By using electron temperature values derived from H166α recombination line and 1.4 GHz continuum observations of 19 H II regions, together with those given by Pedlar (1980) from H166α observations of low-density H II regions (with similar antenna beam) and a value of electron temperature given by Pedlar et al. (1978), a new determination of a galactic electron temperature gradient with the galactocentric distance is obtained for the low-density ionized gas.
