Observatons of NGC 3077 Galaxy in Narrow Band [SII] and Halpha Filters

Abstract

We present observations of the HI tidal arm near dwarf galaxy NGC 3077 (member of the M81 galaxy group) in narrow band [SII] and Halpha filters. Observations were carried out in March 2011 with the 2m RCC telescope at NAO Rozhen, Bulgaria. Our search for possible supernova remnant candidates (identified as sources with enhanced [SII] emission relative to their Halpha emission) in this region yielded no sources of this kind. Nevertheless, we found a number of objects with significant Halpha emission that probably represent uncatalogued, low brightness HII regions.
