We present and discuss a new catalogue of 48 compact H II regions in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and a newly created deep 1420 MHz (λ=20 cm) radio-continuum image of the N19 region located in the southwestern part of the SMC. The new images were created by merging 1420 MHz radio-continuum archival data from the Australian Telescope Compact Array. The majority of these detected radio compact H II regions have rather flat spectral indices which indicates, as expected, that the dominant emission mechanism is of thermal nature.

We present a series of new high-sensitivity and high-resolution radio-continuum images of M31 at λ=20 cm (v=1.4 GHz). These new images were produced by merging archived 20 cm radio-continuum observations from the Very Large Array (VLA) telescope. Images presented here are sensitive to rms=60 µJy and feature high angular resolution (<10") . A complete sample of discrete radio sources have been catalogued and analysed across 17 individual VLA projects. We identified a total of 864 unique discrete radio sources across the field of M31. One of the most prominent regions in M31 is the ring feature for which we estimated total integrated flux of 706 mJy at λ=20 cm. We compare here detected sources to those listed in Gelfand et al. (2004) at λ=92 cm and find 118 sources in common to both surveys. The majority (61%) of these sources exhibit a spectral index of a<-0.6 indicating that their emission is predominantly non-thermal in nature, that is more typical for background objects.

We present a new catalogue of radio-continuum sources in the field of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). This catalogue contains sources previously not found in 2370 MHz (λ=13 cm) with sources found at 1400 MHz (λ=20 cm) and 843 MHz (λ=36 cm). 45 sources have been detected at 13 cm, with 1560 sources at 20 cm created from new high sensitivity and resolution radio-continuum images of the SMC at 20 cm from paper I. We also created a 36 cm catalogue to which we listed 1689 radio-continuum sources. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We present two new catalogues of radio-continuum sources in the field of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). These catalogues contain sources found at 4800 MHz (λ=6 cm) and 8640 MHz (λ=3 cm). Some 457 sources have been detected at 3 cm with 601 sources at 6 cm created from new high-sensitivity and resolution radio-continuum images of the SMC from Crawford et al. (2011).
