Abstract

The energy distribution in the spectrum of HII regions in blue compact dwarf galaxies in the wavelength region λ 912–22.8 Å is obtained. The methods of Lc spectrum computation were discussed and the two versions of solving this problem are considered. The first version correspond to a supposition on similarity of spectral slopes beyond the hydrogen and helium discontinuities (the emission fluxes were evaluated at λ 912, λ 504, λ 228 Å and a spectral index α). The second version correspond to a supposition that helium discontinuities are absent (emission flux on λ 912 Å and a spectral index in each of the three wavelength bands λλ 912–504 Å, λλ 504–228 Å, λλ 228–22.8 Å were determined). A special class in programming language С++ was created for fast Lc spectrum computation using these methods, and thus other scientists could use these methods in their programmes.
