Abundances in the H I envelope of the extremely low-metallicity Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxy SBS 0335-052 from Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer observations

T. X. Thuan, A. Lecavelier des Etangs, Y. I. Izotov

We present FUSE spectroscopy of SBS 0335-052, the second most metal-deficient blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy known (log O/H = -4.70). In addition to the H I Lyman series, we detec…

Pox 186: an ultracompact galaxy with dominant ionized gas emission

N. G. Guseva, P. Papaderos, Y. I. Izotov +2

We present a ground-based optical spectroscopic and HST U, V, I photometric study of the blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy Pox 186. It is found that the emission of the low-surface b…

Discovery of the high--ionization emission line [Ne V] 3426 in the blue compact dwarf galaxy Tol 1214-277

Y. I. Izotov, K. G. Noeske, N. G. Guseva +3

The discovery of the high-ionization [Ne V] 3426A emission line in the spectrum of the blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy Tol 1214-277 is reported. The detection of this line implies…
