Large field view of the N83 ionized gas complex
in the LMC OB association LH5
The LMC OB association LH5 with its central giant HII complex N83, as
seen on the ESO R survey. The ionized components and three
stars of the association are labeled. The marked stars are Sk-6930,
the brightest star of the association, Sk-6925, the main exciting star
of N83A, and BAT99-5, a Wolf-Rayet star. The WFPC2 footprints are
also indicated. The white solid line shows the field of view during
the HST imaging with the nebular filters (21 May 2000) and the
red dashed line is the one for the stellar filters (7 February
2000). The field center is at: R.A. = 04:54:14.48, DEC = -69:10:33.7
(J2000).
