Scientific paper

We have used sensitive VLA observations made at 20 and 6 cm towards a high energy source near the galactic center to study the nature of three relatively bright (S6 cm > 5 mJy) unidentified radio sources in the field. All three sources have flat spectral indices and are most probably optically-thin free-free emitters. On the basis of their flux densities, sizes, masses, and morphologies, we tentatively identify two of these sources (G359.023-0.044, G359.139-0.087) as planetary nebulae and the third one (G359.164-0.161) as a compact H II region.
