On the compact HII galaxy UM 408 as seen by GMOS-IFU: Physical conditions
Patricio Lagos, Eduardo Telles, Casiana Munoz-Tunon +3
We present Integral Field Unit GMOS-IFU data of the compact HII galaxy UM408, obtained at Gemini South telescope, in order to derive the spatial distribution of emission lines and…
A VLT VIMOS study of the anomalous BCD Mrk 996: mapping the ionised gas kinematics and abundances
B. L. James, Y. G. Tsamis, M. J. Barlow +4
A study of the blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy Mrk 996 based on high resolution optical VLT VIMOS integral field unit spectroscopy is presented. Mrk 996 displays multi-component li…
A standard stellar library for evolutionary synthesis. III. Metallicity calibration
P. Westera, T. Lejeune, R. Buser +2
We extend the colour calibration of the widely used BaSeL standard stellar library (Lejeune, Cuisinier, & Buser 1997, 1998) to non-solar metallicities, down to [Fe/H] ~ -2.0 dex. S…
A standard stellar library for evolutionary synthesis: II. The M dwarf extension
T. Lejeune, F. Cuisinier, R. Buser
A standard library of theoretical stellar spectra intended for multiple synthetic photometry applications including spectral evolutionary synthesis is presented. The grid includes…
A standard stellar library for evolutionary synthesis: I. Calibration of theoretical spectra
T. Lejeune, F. Cuisinier, R. Buser
A comprehensive hybrid library of synthetic stellar spectra based on three original grids of model atmosphere spectra by Kurucz (1995), Fluks et al. (1994), and Bessell et al. (198…
