The Most Metal-Poor Galaxies
Metallicity is a key parameter that controls many aspects in the formation and evolution of stars and galaxies. In this review we focus on the metal deficient galaxies, in particular the most metal-poor ones, because they play a crucial rôle in the cosmic scenery. We first set the stage by discussing the difficult problem of defining a global metallicity and how this quantity can be measured fo...
متن کاملVery Cold Gas and Dark Matter
We have recently proposed a new candidate for baryonic dark matter: very cold molecular gas, in near-isothermal equilibrium with the cosmic background radiation at 2.73 K. The cold gas, of quasi-primordial abundances, is condensed in a fractal structure, resembling the hierarchical structure of the detected interstellar medium. We present some perspectives of detecting this very cold gas, eithe...
متن کاملNearby Gas-Rich Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
We examine the Fisher–Tully cz < 1000 km s galaxy sample to determine whether it is a complete and representative sample of all galaxy types, including low surface brightness populations, as has been recently claimed. We find that the sample is progressively more incomplete for galaxies with (1) smaller physical diameters at a fixed isophote and (2) lower HI masses. This is likely to lead to a ...
متن کاملThe Weak Clustering of Gas-Rich Galaxies
We examine the clustering properties of H i-selected galaxies through an analysis of the H i Parkes All-Sky Survey Catalogue (Hicat) two-point correlation function. Various sub-samples are extracted from this catalogue to study the overall clustering of H i-rich galaxies and its dependence on luminosity, H i gas mass and rotational velocity. These samples cover the entire southern sky δ < 0, co...
متن کاملThe Baryon Cycle of Dwarf Galaxies: Dark, Bursty, Gas-rich Polluters
We present results from a fully cosmological, very high-resolution, ΛCDM simulation of a group of seven field dwarf galaxies with present-day virial masses in the range M vir = 4.4 × 108-3.6 × 1010 M �. The simulation includes a blastwave scheme for supernova feedback, a star-formation recipe based on a high gas density threshold, metal-dependent radiative cooling, a scheme for the turbulent di...
