An imaging and spectroscopic study of the very metal-deficient blue compact dwarf galaxy Tol 1214--277
K. J. Fricke, Y. I. Izotov, P. Papaderos +2
We present a spectrophotometric study based on VLT/FORS I observations of one of the most metal-deficient blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies known, Tol 1214-277 (Z ~ Zsun/25). The d…
The very red afterglow of GRB 000418 - further evidence for dust extinction in a GRB host galaxy
S. Klose, B. Stecklum, N. Masetti +36
We report near-infrared and optical follow-up observations of the afterglow of the Gamma-Ray Burst 000418 starting 2.5 days after the occurrence of the burst and extending over nea…
The Cometary Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies Mkn 59 and Mkn 71: Clues to Dwarf Galaxy Evolution?
K. G. Noeske, N. G. Guseva, K. J. Fricke +3
"Cometary" Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies (iI,C BCDs) are characterized by off-center starbursts close to the end of an elongated dwarf irregular (dI)-like host galaxy. This may eithe…
