The supergiant shell LMC 4 is known for its ring of HII regions and the deep minimum in HI in the interior (Rohlfs et al. 1984). LMC 4 shows X-ray emission detected by ROSAT and highly ionised gas (C IV) detected with HST (Bomans et al. 1994, 1996). The velocities of its neutral gas indicate it cannot have been formed by the collision with a high velocity cloud (Domgörgen et al. 1995).
