Radio recombination lines from the supernova remnant candidate G3392-04

H109 alpha and H137 beta recombination lines have been detected from the direction of the supernova remnant candidate G339.2-0.4. The source appears to be a low-excitation H II region with an electron temperature of approximately 5000K and a considerable overabundance of heavy elements. The recombin...

Sumario:H109 alpha and H137 beta recombination lines have been detected from the direction of the supernova remnant candidate G339.2-0.4. The source appears to be a low-excitation H II region with an electron temperature of approximately 5000K and a considerable overabundance of heavy elements. The recombination lines which Manchester and Mebold (1977) detected in the direction of the nearby pulsar PSR 1641-45 may also arise in this H II region. (9 refs).
