Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake: Northern Local Star-forming Dwarf Galaxies. Analogues of the First Galaxies and Probes of the Cosmic Metallicity Scale

C. Esteban, J. M. Vilchez, J. García-Rojas +15

Star-forming dwarf galaxies in the local Universe, especially extremely metal-poor ones, can be considered analogous to early galaxies of the Epoch of Reionization (z >= 6). Curren…

Science Enabled by a 30-Meter-Class Telescope in the Northern Hemisphere: Massive Stars at Low Metallicity

Miriam Garcia, Artemio Herrero, Ignacio Negueruela +11

Massive stars are at the core of our observations of the Universe up to the reionization epoch, both through their intense ionizing fluxes and through the energetic end products th…

J-PAS: First Identification, Physical Properties and Ionization Efficiency of Extreme Emission Line Galaxies

A. Giménez-Alcázar, R. Amorín, J. M. Vílchez +32

Extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs) are key tracers of intense star formation and potential analogues of the sources that reionized the early Universe. Their low-redshift counte…

J-PAS: A value-added catalogue of optical line intensities for nebular emission galaxies (JOLINES)

J. A. Fernández-Ontiveros, C. López-Sanjuan, A. Hernán-Caballero +38

We present the value-added catalogue JOLINES (J-PAS optical line intensities for nebular emission galaxies), which provides emission-line fluxes in galaxies at from the spectrophot…

MEGADES: MEGARA galaxy disc evolution survey. Ionised gas diagnosis

M. Chamorro-Cazorla, A. Gil de Paz, A. Castillo-Morales +13

We present the ionised gas properties and metallicity gradients of 43 galaxies observed by the MEGADES survey. Using the MEGARA (Multi-Espectrografo en GTC de Alta Resolucion para…

New clues on the extended HeII ionization in IZw18 from GTC/MEGARA and JWST/MIRI

A. Arroyo-Polonio, C. Kehrig, J. M. Vílchez +5

IZw18 is one of the lowest-metallicity star-forming galaxies known at z0, considered a unique local analogue of the first galaxies. The origin of its hard ionizing continuum,…
