New catalogue of Wolf-Rayet galaxies and high-excitation extra-galactic HII regions
Daniel Schaerer, Thierry Contini, Maximilien Pindao
We present a new compilation of Wolf-Rayet (WR) galaxies and extra-galactic HII regions showing BROAD HeII emission drawn from the literature. Relevant information on the presence…
Populations of WC and WN stars in Wolf-Rayet galaxies
Daniel Schaerer, Thierry Contini, Daniel Kunth
We report the detection of WC stars in 5 Wolf-Rayet (WR) galaxies: He 2-10, NGC 3049, NGC 3125, NGC 5253 and Tol 89. The faint broad CIV5808 line requires sufficiently high S/N to…
The PDS starburst galaxies
R. Coziol, C. A. O. Torres, G. R. Quast +2
(Abridged) We discuss the nature of the galaxies found in the Pico dos Dias Survey (PDS) for young stellar objects. The PDS galaxies were selected from the IRAS Point Source catalo…
The Massive Nearby SBNGs: Young Galaxies in Formation
Roger Coziol, Thierry Contini, Emmanuel Davoust +1
We discuss the implications of the recent discovery that Starburst Nucleus Galaxies (SBNGs) have lower oxygen abundances than "normal galaxies" of the same morphological type. Our…
