Abstract: For a second countable locally compact group and a second countable locally compact space let denote the equivariant Brauer group (for the trivial -space ) consisting of all Morita equivalence classes of spectrum fixing actions of on continuous-trace -algebras with spectrum . Extending recent results of several authors, we give a complete description of in terms of group cohomology of and Cech cohomology of . Moreover, if has a splitting group in the sense of Calvin Moore, we give a complete description of the -bundle structure of the crossed product in terms of the topological data associated to the given action and the bundle structure of the group -algebra of .
