Description
We present preliminary results of the kinematics of HII regions and
diffuse gas in the irregular galaxies IC10 and NGC 4449. From
Fabry-Perot Hα and [SII] observations, we have measured the radial
velocities and velocity dispersions of the HII regions in these galaxies
and compared them with a similar analysis done in the Small Magellanic
Cloud. We study the interactions between massive stars and the
interstellar medium in these galaxies via winds and supernovae. In order
to do this, we have identified regions with enhanced [SII]/Hα
emission, that are SNR candidates.
