Near-infrared spectroscopy of a large sample of low-metallicity blue compact dwarf galaxies
Y. I. Izotov, T. X. Thuan
We present near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic observations in the wavelength range 0.90-2.40mum of eighteen low-metallicity blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies and six HII regions in…
On the universality of luminosity-metallicity and mass-metallicity relations for compact star-forming galaxies at redshifts 0 < z < 3
Y. I. Izotov, N. G. Guseva, K. J. Fricke +1
We study relations between global characteristics of low-redshift (0 < z < 1) compact star-forming galaxies, including absolute optical magnitudes, Hbeta emission-line luminosities…
New candidates for extremely metal-poor emission-line galaxies in the SDSS/BOSS DR10
N. G. Guseva, Y. I. Izotov, K. J. Fricke +1
We present a spectroscopic study of eight extremely low-metallicity candidate emission-line galaxies with oxygen abundances possibly below 12 +log O/H = 7.35. These galaxies were s…
Excitation properties of galaxies with the highest [OIII]/[OII] ratios: No evidence for massive escape of ionizing photons
G. Stasinska, Yu. Izotov, C. Morisset +1
The possibility that star-forming galaxies may leak ionizing photons is at the heart of many present-day studies that investigate the reionization of the Universe. We test this hyp…
