Description
H II regions are key tracers of recent star formation and Galactic structure. In this study, we present a method for identifying and characterizing H II regions by cross-matching data from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey Data Release 3 (LoTSS DR-3) and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) catalog. Radio emission from LoTSS provides high-sensitivity, low-frequency observations, while WISE mid-infrared data effectively traces warm dust associated with massive star formation. Our analysis reveals a significant number of matches, including both known and candidate H II regions.
