ADC_Keywords: H II regions ; Photometry, H-alpha Keywords: galaxies: stellar content - HII regions - chemical abundance - supernovae Abstract: The galaxy NGC6384 has been observed with an IPCS through Hα and [NII] narrow-band interference filters for direct imagery with the 2.6-m Byurakan telescope. We studied the main physical parameters of the identified 98 HII regions, their diameter and luminosity functions, as well the [NII]/Hα ratio distribution. Description: The observations have been made with the CIGAL equipment which mainly consists of a mainly focal reducer with IPCS and scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer attached to the F/3.8 prime focus of the 2.6-m telescope of Byurakan Observatory (Armenia) on September 7, 1985.
