Description:
We report finding charts and accurate positions for 432 compact
Hα emitting regions in the Local Group Galaxy M33 (NGC 598), in
an effort to isolate candidates for an SS433-like stellar system. The
objects were extracted from narrowband images, centered in the rest
frame Hα (λ6563A) and in the red continuum at 6100A. The
atlas is complete down to V≃20, and includes 279 compact H II regions
and 153 line emitting point-like sources. The point-like sources
undoubtedly include a variety of objects: very small H II regions,
early type stars with intense stellar winds, and Wolf-Rayet stars, but
should also contain objects with the characteristics of SS433. This
extensive survey of compact Hα regions in M33 is a first step
towards the identification of peculiar stellar systems like SS433 in
external galaxies.
