Star Formation Rate estimators: [OII]3727 vs. Halpha for local star-forming galaxies
A. Aragon-Salamanca, A. Alonso-Herrero, J. Gallego +4
The [OII]3727 emission line is frequently used as an indicator of the star formation rate (SFR) despite its complex dependence on metallicity and excitation conditions. We have ana…

12CO mapping of the low-metallicity BCD galaxy Mrk86
A. Gil de Paz, S. A. Silich, B. F. Madore +3
We have mapped the 12CO J=1-0 and J=2-1 line emission in Mrk86, one of the most metal-deficient Blue Compact Dwarf galaxies so far detected in 12CO. The 12CO emission is distribute…
