Properties of Primitive Galaxies
Sara R. Heap, I. Hubeny, J. -C. Bouret +2
We report on a study of 9 nearby star-forming, very low-metallicity galaxies observed by Hubble's COS far-UV spectrograph that can serve as templates of high-z galaxies to be obser…
Optical design for CETUS: a wide-field 1.5m aperture UV payload being studied for a NASA probe class mission study
Robert A. Woodruff, William C. Danchi, Sara R. Heap +12
As part of a study funded by NASA Headquarters, we are developing a Probe-class mission concept called the Cosmic Evolution Through UV Spectroscopy (CETUS). CETUS includes a 1.5-m…
The NASA Probe space mission concept, Cosmic Evolution Through UV Surveys (CETUS)
Sara Heap, Jonathan Arenberg, Tony Hull +2
The mission concept, Cosmic Origins Through UV Surveys (CETUS) is an all-UV space mission concept that was selected and funded by NASA for study in 2017. The main capabilities of C…
Evaluation of Digital Micromirror Devices for use in space-based Multi-Object Spectrometer application
Anton Travinskya, Dmitry Vorobiev, Zoran Ninkov +12
The astronomical community continues to be interested in suitable programmable slit masks for use in multi-object spectrometers (MOSs) on space missions. There have been ground-bas…
Population III Stars in I Zw 18
Sally Heap, Jean-Claude Bouret, Ivan Hubeny
Ultraviolet and 21-cm observations suggest that the extremely low-metallicity galaxy, I Zw 18, is a stream-fed galaxy containing a "pocket" of pristine stars responsible for produc…
Chemical enrichment and physical conditions in I Zw 18
Vianney Lebouteiller, Sara Heap, Ivan Hubeny +1
Abridged. Low-metallicity star-forming dwarf galaxies are prime targets to understand the chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium. The HI region provides important constrain…
