Abstract
Abstract We investigate spectral and photometric properties of extragalactic star-forming complexes (SFCs). The SFCs were selected in 17 nearby galaxies of a spiral or irregular type, having inclinations less than 45° and distances less than 15 Mpc. To identify SFCs, we developed a method based on matching sources of emission at 160 μ m 160\hspace{0.33em}{\rm{\mu }}{\rm{m}} (cold dust) and 8 μ m 8\hspace{0.33em}{\rm{\mu }}{\rm{m}} (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons). Using photometry in different spectral bands, correlations between SFC properties for spiral and irregular galaxies were considered. Spectral and kinematic analysis was carried out for several SFCs, and a method to detect gas motion patterns in these SFCs was suggested.
