On the Metallicity of Star-forming Dwarf Galaxies
Francois Legrand, Guillermo Tenorio-Tagle, Sergiy Silich +2
We construct three extreme different scenarios of the star formation histories applicable to a sample of dwarf galaxies, based either on their present metallicity or their luminosi…
On the star formation history of IZw 18
F. Legrand
It has been suggested that a continuous low star formation rate has been the dominant regime in IZw 18 and in dwarf galaxies for the lifetime of these objects (Legrand et al. 1999)…
Slowly cooking galaxies
Francois Legrand
Recent spectroscopic observations of IZw~18 have revealed homogeneous abundance throughout the galaxy and several observations of other starburst galaxies have shown no significant…
Low Rate Star Formation Activity During Quiescent Phases in Dwarf Galaxies
F. Legrand, D. Kunth
Observations of quiescent dwarfs and low surface brightness galaxies suggest that continuous low rate star formation is likely to occur, during the quiescent phases between bursts,…
