Synchrotron superbubble in the galaxy IC 10: The ionized gas structure, kinematics, and emission spectrum

We have investigated the structure, kinematics, and emission spectrum of the ionized gas in the synchrotron superbubble in the irregular galaxy IC 10 based on observations with the 6-m Special Astrophysical Observatory telescope with the SCORPIO focal reducer in three modes: direct imaging in the [S II] lambda(6717 + 6731) angstrom lines, long-slit spectroscopy, and spectroscopy with a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer. We have identified a bright (in the [S II] lines) filamentary optical shell and determined its expansion velocity, mass, and kinetic energy. The nature of the object is discussed.
