We present preliminary results from spectral observations of four (4) candidate radio sources co-identified with known planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). These were made using the Radcliffe 1.9-meter telescope in Sutherland, South Africa. These radio PNe were originally found in Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) surveys of the SMC at 1.42 and 2.37 GHz, and were further confirmed by new high resolution ATCA images at 6 and 3 cm (400 /200 ). Optical PNe and radio candidates are within 200 and may represent a sub- population of selected radio bright objects. Nebular ionized masses of these objects may be 2.6 Mo or greater, supporting the existence of PNe progenitor central stars with masses up to 8 Mo.

We present 11 spectra from 12 candidate radio sources co-identified with known planetary nebulae (PNe) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Originally found in Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) LMC surveys at 1.4, 4.8 and 8.64 GHz and confirmed by new high resolution ATCA images at 6 and 3 cm (4' /2' ), these complement data recently presented for candidate radio PNe in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Their spectra were obtained using the Radcliff 1.9-meter telescope in Sutherland (South Africa). All of the optical PNe and radio candidates are within 2' and may represent a population of selected radio bright sample only. Nebular ionized masses of these objects are estimated to be as high as 1.8 Mfi, supporting the idea that massive PNe progenitor central stars lose much of their mass in the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase or prior. We also identify a sub-population (33%) of radio PNe candidates with prominent ionized iron emission lines.

Objective Prism

Kinematical studies of the Magellanic Clouds began more than half a century ago, when Wilson, in 1918, first interpreted the gradient of the 17 radial velocities of gazeous nebulae in the Large Cloud in terms of rotation. In the case of the Small Magellanic Cloud, the first real attempt to understand the velocity field of this galaxy was performed by the Radcliffe astronomers (Feast et al., 1960, 1961). Their study was based on radial velocities of 40 stars and 13 HII regions.With the installation by ESO of an objective-prisme astrograph in South Africa, in 1961, and then of several larger telescopes in Chile in 1968, the number of measurements significantly increased for Magellanic objects, in particular in the SMC. In this galaxy, the objective-prism observations resulted in about 100 stellar radial velocities (Florsch, 1972a) of probable members. A compilation by Maurice (1979) of all then known slit-spectrograph radial velocities gave velocities for 80 supergiants, 35 HII regions and 12 planetary nebulae.

Preliminary Results

We have studied with the SEI method (Sobolev approximation plus Exact Integration of the transfer equation) seven hot stars, five belonging to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and two to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), which have been observed with IUE in high resolution. We present preliminary results of the work, i.e. the terminal velocities and the optical depth of the P Cygni profile. An evaluation of qiM has been done, as well as a comparison with previous work.

AbstractIt is widely accepted that binary interactions are responsible for the shaping of planetary nebula. However, these binary interactions and evolutionary channels are poorly understood. Our recent study revealed a newly discovered population of low-luminosity, low-metallicity, likely binaries in the Magellanic Clouds: dusty post-RGB stars. They are likely to have evolved off the RGB via binary interaction. In this paper we present preliminary results of the first radial velocity monitoring of the post-RGB stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and the implications on stellar (binary) evolution. We also investigate their link, if any, to the planetary nebulae systems.

We present the 100 strongest 1.4 GHz point sources from a new mosaic image in the direction of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The observations making up the mosaic were made using Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) over a ten year period and were combined with Parkes single dish data at 1.4 GHz to complete the image for short spacing. An initial list of co-identifications within 1000 at 0.843, 4.8 and 8.6 GHz consisted of 2682 sources. Elimination of extended objects and artifact noise allowed the creation of a refined list containing 1988 point sources. Most of these are presumed to be background objects seen through the LMC; a small portion may represent compact H ii regions, young SNRs and radio planetary nebulae. For the 1988 point sources we find a preliminary average spectral index (?) of -0.53 and present a 1.4 GHz image showing source location in the direction of the LMC.
