Gas-rich LSB Galaxies – Progenitors of Blue Compact Dwarfs?
We analyze deep CCD images of nearby Blue Compact Dwarf (BCD) galaxies in an attempt to understand the nature of the progenitors which are hosting the current burst of star formation. In particular, we ask whether BCDs are hosted by normal or low-surface-brightness dI galaxies. We conclude that BCDs are in fact hosted by gas-rich galaxies which populate the extreme high-central-mass-density end...
متن کاملCarbon-rich, extremely metal-poor Population II stars
A significant fraction of very metal-poor stars have unexpectedly high carbon abundances. I recap on their discovery, describe the results of high-resolution spectroscopic studies of their composition, and consider possible origins. It is now clear that at least two, and possibly three different explanations are needed for their general characteristics.
متن کاملThe Frequency of C-Rich Extremely Metal Poor Stars
We demonstrate that there are systematic scale errors in the [Fe/H] values determined by the Hamburg/ESO Survey (and by the HK Survey by inference) for certain extremely metal poor (EMP) highly C-enhanced giants. The consequences of these scale errors are that a) the fraction of carbon stars at extremely low metallicities has been substantially overestimated in several papers in the recent lite...
متن کاملCS 22957 - 027 : a carbon - rich extremely - metal - poor star ?
We present a high-resolution spectroscopic analysis of the extremely-metal-poor star CS 22957-027, which Beers et al. (1992) noted to exhibit a rather strong G-band. For T eff = 4839 K, derived from broadband photometry, our analysis obtains log g= 2.25, and a very low metallicity of [Fe/H]=−3.43 ± 0.12. The carbon-to-iron ratio is found to be enhanced by ≈ 2 dex relative to the solar value, si...
متن کاملChromospheric Activity in Metal-Poor Dwarfs
We have obtained echelle spectra with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) of the MgII 2800 Å region of ten stars whose metallicities range from 1/300 to 1/3 that of the Sun, and whose space velocities suggest a halo or old thick-disk origin. Spectra of all ten show doublepeaked emission in the MgII core, very much like the quiet Sun. A halfdozen apparently non-rotating stars were observed more tha...
