Abstract

A reexamination of the correspondence between 6cm radio continuum sources and young star clusters in the Antennae galaxies indicates that ~85% of the strong thermal sources have optical counterparts, once the optical image is shifted 1.2" to the southwest. A sample of 37 radio-optical matches are studied in detail, showing correlations between radio properties (i.e., total flux and spectral index) and a variety of optical characteristics (i.e., intrinsic cluster brightness, H{alpha} flux and equivalent width, extinction, and cluster ages). There is a strong correlation between the radio flux and the intrinsic optical brightness.
