In an earlier paper by Sanduleak et al. (1978) a listing was given of 102 confirmed and probable planetary nebulae in the Large Magellanic Cloud detected on objective-prism plates taken with the Curtis Schmidt telescope at Cerro Tololo. Subsequently, deeper coverage was obtained on nitrogen-baked Kodak IIIa-J plates plus GG 455 filter exposed for 90 minutes. The thin prism was again used to provide a dispersion of about 1500 Å mm−1 at Hβ and the spectra were unwidened. An additional 25 planetary nebula candidates were found on this new plate material to show the requisite characteristics, i.e. they display (a) a stellar appearance, (b) [OIII] λλ5007, 4959 strongly in emission, and (c) no evidence of a continuum.

AbstractThis paper describes the results of searches for planetary nebulae on seven objective prism plates which were taken with the UK 1.2m Schmidt Telescope and cover the entire Small Magellanic Cloud. A total of 62 objects were detected; their spatial distribution is discussed.

During the past several years, a systematic search for novae in the Magellanic Clouds has been carried out at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. The Curtis Schmidt telescope, on loan to CTIO from the University of Michigan is used to obtain plates every two weeks during the observing season. An objective prism is used on the telescope. This provides additional low-dispersion spectroscopic information when a nova is discovered. The plates cover an area of 5°x5°. One plate is sufficient to cover the Small Magellanic Cloud and four are taken of the Large Magellanic Cloud with an overlap so that the central bar is included on each plate. The methods used in the search have been described by Graham and Araya (1971). In the CTIO survey, 8 novae have been discovered in the Large Cloud but none in the Small Cloud. The survey was not carried out in 1974 or 1976. During 1974, one nova was discovered in the Small Cloud by MacConnell and Sanduleak (1974).

The object (α1950 = 18h04m.3; δ1950 = −8o56!4) was discovered in a 103a-E+RG 1 objective prism plate taken with the 92/67-cm Schmidt telescope of the Astrophysical Observatory of Asiago (Italy). It presents only the Hα emission and no stellar continuum; following Kohoutek (1965, 1969, 1972) it is a bona fide planetary nebula. This classification is confirmed by the appearance of the object in the red and infrared plates of the Near Infrared Photographic Survey of the galactic plane (Sabbadin, 1986): it is quite bright in the red plate and almost invisible in the infrared one.

The Difference

In the present work we have computed the physical parameters and chemical abundances for 45 planetary nebulae (PN) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using the photoionization code CLOUDY, developed by Ferland (1993). CLOUDY is used as a subroutine in the code DIANA, developed by Elizalde & Steiner (1996), which minimises indices that measures the difference between the calculated and real nebula.

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.
