Small Magellanic Cloud ATCA Radio Continuum Sources
This table contains the classification of 717 radio-continuum sources from the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) Catalog of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). All 717 sources have been categorised into one of three groups: supernova remnants (SNRs), HII regions and background sources. In total, 71 sources are named as HII regions (or candidates) and 21 sources are named as SNRs (or candidates). Six sources are named as either HII regions or background sources and two are candidate radio planetary nebulae. One source is coincident with an X-ray binary. 616 objects are classified as background sources and their statistics are presented in the published paper II from which this table is taken. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2005 based on CDS table J/MNRAS/355/44/table2.dat . This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
