Hst Proposal Id #4087

Scientific paper

Much of the scientific utility of narrow band imaging of nebulae lies in the study of stratification and structural variations among emission lines that trace regions of different density, temperature, and radiation environment. As such, imaging studies of nebulae are not as seriously affected by HST's optical problems as many programs, so long as adequate signal to noise is obtained to allow reliable deconvolution of the structure present. For nearby objects, HST can resolve physically important scales associated with many gasdynamic and radiative processes in the ISM. In this section of the WFPC HII proposal, we request time augment our study of the 30 Doradus region by investigating the structure of the ionized gas. This investigation will help us understand the structure and physics of H II regions and the ISM in external galaxies.
