We present our high-resolution radio-continuum and X-ray study of supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs). These investigations are based on Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) radio-continuum and ROSAT X-ray observations. Our main aim is to study a complete sample of the MC SNRs and H II regions.

A programme of spectroscopic observations of planetary nebulae in both Magellanic Clouds has been underway in Pretoria for some years, and some preliminary results for the LMC have been published (Feast, 1964b). More extensive observations are now available (altogether in both clouds 112 spectra of 39 objects), and these are being prepared for publication elsewhere. Below are summarized the main conclusions so far deduced.

Using the Shklovsky-Minkowski-Aller constant mass method of distances to planetary nebulae, a model of the Galactic dust distribution in the vicinity of the Sun has been determined. Distances are determined in part from extinctions derived from radio continuum to Hβ flux ratios for an assumed electron temperature of 7000 K. The distance scale is based on the brightness of planetary nebulae in the Magellanic Clouds (Seaton, 1968).

AbstractWe present polarimetric observations of the 4 ground-state transitions of OH, toward a sample of maser-emitting planetary nebulae (PNe) using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. This sample includes confirmed OH-emitting PNe, confirmed and candidate H2O-maser-emitting PNe. Polarimetric observations provide information related to the magnetic field of these sources. Maser-emitting PNe are very young PNe and magnetic fields are a key ingredient in the early evolution and shaping process of PNe. Our preliminary results suggest that magnetic field strengths may change very rapidly in young PNe.

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 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.

AbstractWe present new observations in the radio continuum of 31 planetary nebulae at 5 and 8 GHz with the Australian Telescope Compact Array. The observations are used to invesigate properties of the interstellar extinction toward Galactic Bulge.

In an attempt to find new Planetary Nebulae we have short radio continuum observations at 6 cm and 3 cm of 90 PN candidates with the Australian Compact Array. We selected the unidentified objects from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue on basis of their PN colors. Detection of radio continuum emission at the IRAS position almost certainly confirms that these objects are PN, because it indicates the presence of ionized gas. Therefore the 18 detected sources are considered new PN. Because of their high brightness temperatures, they are probably young PN.

A method is described for finding planetary nebulae. Use is made of the far infrared IRAS colors and radio continuum measurements. The method is applied here to a region within 15° of the galactic center. The first results are given, including 36 new PN. The characteristics of the nebulae are described. While they are generally similar to known nebulae, the method of selection gives an emphasis to younger objects. A substantial number of the new nebulae may be in the transition phase between OH/IR stars and PN.

We present results of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) radio continuum observations of massive stars in the Sco OB1 association. Most stars detected in the program show spectral indices lower than value expected from thermal free-free emission.
