Unresolved H{alpha} enhancements in WHAM survey

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We have identified 85 regions of enhanced H{alpha} emission at |b|>10{deg} subtending approximately 1{deg} or less on the Wisconsin H{alpha} Mapper (WHAM) sky survey (Cat.

Description

II/249). These high-latitude "WHAM point sources" have H{alpha} fluxes of 10^-11^-10^-9^ergs/cm^2^/s, radial velocities within about 70km/s of the LSR, and line widths that range from less than 20 to about 80km/s (FWHM).

Twenty-nine of these enhancements are not identified with either cataloged nebulae or hot stars and appear to have kinematic properties that differ from those observed for planetary nebulae. Another 14 enhancements are near hot evolved low-mass stars that had no previously reported detections of associated nebulosity. The remainder of the enhancements are cataloged planetary nebulae and small, high-latitude HII regions surrounding massive O and early B stars.
