Descripción
The B array of the VLA has observed a sample of seven H II galaxies at
325 and 1489 MHz; the radio continuum spectra thus obtained exhibit a
wide variety of spectral shapes, but four show a significant flattening
toward lower frequencies. A detailed discussion is conducted of this LF
flattening, invoking several radio emission and absorption mechanisms
and energy losses of relativistic electrons. Such model-dependent
parameters as the spectral index of injected electrons, the
radio-emission spectral index, the thermal electron density, and the age
of the relativistic electrons, are derived.
