Halpha image of the supergiant shell LMC 4.
A number of superbubbles, bubbles, and SNRs are located along the periphery
of LMC 4.
The field of view is 1600 pc × 1800 pc.
This Halpha image is reproduced from a PDS scan of Kennicutt
& Hodge's (1986) Curtis Schmidt plate
Fig. 2.
X-ray image of the LMC in the R5 band (0.56-1.21 keV).
This ROSAT PSPC mosaic was made by Snowden & Petre (1994).

Top: A mosaic of the HRI survey data centered on the 30 Doradus region.
The field of view is 140' × 110', or
2100 pc × 1650 pc.
Bottom: An Halpha image of the same field, reproduced from
a PDS scan of Kennicutt & Hodge's (1986) Curtis Schmidt plate

Halpha (left) and X-ray (right) images of the SNR
DEM L 316, presented by Williams et al. (1997).
The Halpha image was taken with the Curtis Schmidt Telescope
by Chris Smith.
The X-ray image is extracted from the ROSAT HRI observation rh500232 in the
0.1-2.0 keV band
Fig. 6.
HST WFPC2 Halpha image of the SNR N63A overlaid by X-ray contour.
The X-ray contours are derived from the ROSAT HRI observation rh500173
Fig. 7.
Halpha (left) and X-ray (right) images of N44.
The Halpha image was taken with the Curtis Schmidt Telescope
by Chris Smith.
The X-ray image is extracted from the ROSAT PSPC observation rp500093 in
the 0.1-2.4 keV band
Fig. 8.
Left: X-ray image of the central 9' × 9' of 30 Dor,
extracted from the ROSAT PSPC observation rp500131 in the 0.1-2.4 keV
band.
The bright point source at the center is within a few arcsec from R136.
Right: Long-slit Halpha echellograms of the same region,
reproduced from Chu & Kennicutt (1994).
The wavelength increases upwards.
The separation between adjacent slits corresponds to 45" in sky or
600 km s-1 in velocity
