What will blue compact dwarf galaxies evolve into?

Hagen T. Meyer, Thorsten Lisker, Joachim Janz +1

We present and analyse the photometric properties of a nearly complete sample of blue compact dwarf (BCD) and irregular galaxies in the Virgo cluster from multi-band SDSS images. O…

A near-infrared census of the multi-component stellar structure of early-type dwarf galaxies in the Virgo cluster

J. Janz, E. Laurikainen, T. Lisker +12

The fraction of star-forming to quiescent dwarf galaxies varies from almost infinity in the field to zero in the centers of rich galaxy clusters. What is causing this pronounced mo…

Dwarf galaxy populations in present-day galaxy clusters - II. The history of early-type and late-type dwarfs

Thorsten Lisker, Simone M. Weinmann, Joachim Janz +1

How did the dwarf galaxy population of present-day galaxy clusters form and grow over time? We address this question by analysing the history of dark matter subhaloes in the Millen…

Dwarf galaxy populations in present-day galaxy clusters: I. Abundances and red fractions

Simone M. Weinmann, Thorsten Lisker, Qi Guo +2

We compare the galaxy population in the Virgo, Fornax, Coma and Perseus cluster to a state-of-the-art semi-analytic model, focusing on the regime of dwarf galaxies with luminositie…

An investigation of the luminosity-metallicity relation for a large sample of low-metallicity emission-line galaxies

N. G. Guseva, P. Papaderos, H. T. Meyer +2

(abridged) We present 8.2m VLT spectroscopic observations of 28 HII regions in 16 emission-line galaxies and 3.6m ESO telescope spectroscopic observations of 38 HII regions in 28 e…
