SMC SMP 24: A Newly Radio-Detected Planetary Nebula in the Small Magellanic Cloud

Abstract

In this paper we report a new radio-continuum detection of an extragalactic planetary nebula (PN): SMC~SMP~24. We show the radio-continuum image of this PN and present the measured radio data. The newly reduced radio observations are consistent with the multi-wavelength data and derived parameters found in the literature. SMC~SMP~24 appears to be a young and compact PN, optically thick at frequencies below 2~GHz.
