A turbulence study in Dwarf Irregular galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractWe present preliminary results of a Fourier transform power spectra analysis carried out on a sample of dwarf irregular galaxies and Local Group members. This project is intended to study turbulence and the ISM structure in irregulars as a class.

Kinematics of the dwarf irregular galaxy GR8 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2003
We present deep, high velocity resolution (~1.6 km/s) Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope HI 21cm synthesis images for the faint (M_B ~ -12.1) dwarf irregular galaxy GR8. We find that the velocity field of the galaxy shows a clear systematic large scale pattern, with a maximum amplitude ~10 km/s.

Accretion phenomena in nearby star-forming dwarf galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We present two pilot studies for the search and characterization of accretion events in star-forming dwarf galaxies. Our strategy consists of two complementary approaches: i) the direct search for stellar substructures around dwarf galaxies through ...

First Stellar Abundances in the Dwarf Irregular Galaxy Sextans A [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2004
We present the abundance analyses of three isolated A-type supergiant stars in the dwarf irregular galaxy Sextans A from high-resolution spectra the UVES spectrograph at the VLT. Detailed model atmosphere analyses have been used to determine the stellar atmospheric parameters and the elemental abundances of the stars.

MASS-TO-LIGHT VERSUS COLOR RELATIONS FOR DWARF IRREGULAR GALAXIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We have determined new relations between UBV colors and mass-to-light ratios (M/L) for dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxies, as well as for transformed g' - r'.

AT 2017fvz: a nova in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACT A transient in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 (Barnard’s Galaxy) was discovered on 2017 August 2 and is only the second classical nova discovered in that galaxy. We conducted optical, near-ultraviolet, and X-ray follow-up observations of the eruption, the results of which we present here.
