Abstract

The correlation between the IRAS 60-micron band emission from the galactic disk and radio continuum emissions measured at 11 and 6 cm is discussed. The contribution of the radio continuum at these frequencies from H II is determined. The 60-micron band is used to separate the thermal component of the radio continuum emission from the synchrotron component, and this method is applied to the identification of new SNR candidates.
