Abstract. The compilation of published spectra of Galactic H regions with available diagnostic [OIII]λ4363 line information has been carried out. Our list contains 71 individual measurements of 13 H regions in the range of galactocentric distances from 6.6 to 14.8 kpc. The oxygen abundances in all the H regions were recomputed in the same way, using the classic T e -method. The oxygen abundance at the solar galactocentric distance traced by those H regions is in agreement with the oxygen abundance in the interstellar medium in the solar vicinity derived with high precision from the interstellar absorption lines towards stars. The derived radial oxygen abundance distribution was compared with that for H regions from the Shaver et al. (1983) sample which is the basis of many models for the chemical evolution of our Galaxy. It was found that the original Shaver et al.'s oxygen abundances are overestimated by 0.2-0.3 dex. Oxygen abundances in H regions from the Shaver et al. sample have been redetermined with the recently suggested P-method. The radial distribution of oxygen abundances from the Shaver et al. sample redetermined with the P-method is in agreement with our radial distribution of (O/H) Te abundances.
Abstract. The compilation of published spectra of Galactic H ii regions with available diagnostic [OIII]λ4363 line information has been carried out.

Головна астрономiчна обсерваторiя НАН України Проведено аналiз рiзних методiв визначення вмiсту кисню в HII областях Галактики. Недавно запропонований Р-метод добре узгоджується з Te-методом, а R23-метод дає велику систематичну похибку. Визначено вмiст кисню в HII областях спiральних галактик за допомогою P-методу, викоростовуючи зiбранi з лiтератури спектральнi данi. Знайденi параметри радiального розподiлу вмiсту кисню в дисках цих галактик. Проведений пошук глобальної азимутальної асиметрiї в розподiлi вмiсту кисню в дисках дослiджуваних галактик. Розподiл вмiсту кисню в дисках дослiджуваних галактик є азимутально симетричним, принаймнi в першому наближеннi. МЕТОДЫ ОПРЕДЕЛЕНИЯ СОДЕРЖАНИЯ КИСЛОРОДА В HII ОБЛАСТЯХ. РАСПРЕДЕЛЕНИЕ СО-ДЕРЖАНИЯ КИСЛОРОДА В ДИСКАХ СПИРАЛЬНЫХ ГАЛАКТИК, Шкварун Р.В., Пiлюгин Л.С. Проведен анализ разных методов определения содержания кислорода в НII областях Галактики. Недавно предложенный Р-метод хорошо согласуется с Te-методом, а R23-метод дает большую систематическую погрешность. Определено содержание кислорода в HII областях спиральных галактик при помощи P-метода, используя собранные из литературы спектральные данные. Найдены параметры радиального распределения содержания кислорода в дисках этих галактик. Проведен поиск глобальной азимутальной асимметрии в распределении содержания кислорода в дисках исcледуемых галактик. Распределение содержания кислорода в дисках исследованных галактик являются азимутально симметричными, по крайней мере в первом приближении.
