On the Escape of Ionizing Radiation from Starbursts
T. Heckman, K. R. Sembach, G. Meurer +3
Far-ultraviolet spectra obtained with show that the strong 1036 interstellar absorption-line is essentially black in five of the UV-brightest local starburst galaxies.…

FUSE Observations of Outflowing OVI in the Dwarf Starburst Galaxy NGC1705
T. M. Heckman, K. R. Sembach, G. R. Meurer +4
We report FUSE far-UV spectroscopy of the prototypical dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 1705. These data allow us for the first time to probe the coronal-phase gas (T = 10E5 to 10E6 K) t…

Star Formation in the Field and Clusters of NGC 5253
C. A. Tremonti, D. Calzetti, C. Leitherer +1
We investigate the star formation history of both the bright star clusters and the diffuse `field star' population in the dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 5253 using STIS longslit ultrav…
