The Lyman-alpha emission in local Star-Forming Galaxies: Scenario and Connection with Primeval Galaxies
D. Kunth, E. Terlevich, R. Terlevich +1
We review the Lyan alpha emission in local star-forming galaxies. In most cases as already shown by the IUE, the emission is absent or much weaker than expected. This occurs becaus…

HST study of Lyman-alpha emission in star-forming galaxies: the effect of neutral gas flows
D. Kunth, J. M. Mas-Hesse, E. Terlevich +3
We present high dispersion HST GHRS UV spectroscopic observations of 8 HII galaxies covering a wide range of metallicities and physical properties. We have found Lyalpha emission i…
