The Evolutionary Status of Isolated Dwarf Irregular Galaxies II. Star Formation Histories and Gas Depletion [PDF]
, 2001 The results of UBV and H alpha imaging of a large sample of isolated dwarf irregular galaxies are interpreted in the context of composite stellar population models.

Star clusters in the dwarf irregular galaxy Leo A [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2019 Context. Leo A is an isolated gas-rich dwarf irregular galaxy of low stellar mass and metallicity residing at the outskirts of the Local Group. Ages of the stellar populations in Leo A range from ∼10 Myr to ∼10 Gyr. So far, only one star cluster has been discovered in this galaxy. Aims.

Properties of the Dwarf Irregular Galaxy DDO 169 [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2006 This paper investigates the H i, optical, and dark matter properties of the dwarf irregular galaxy DDO 169. The galaxy shows signs of being tidally disrupted. Evidence of this can easily be seen in the galaxy's velocity field. We also show that DDO 169, which was thought to have a companion galaxy, does not.

The Resilience of Habitable Climates Around Circumbinary Stars
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 125, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020 Abstract Here we use a 3‐D climate system model to study the habitability of Earth‐like planets orbiting in circumbinary systems. In the most extreme cases, Earth‐like planets in circumbinary systems could experience variations in the incident stellar flux of up to ~50% on ~100‐day timescales.

Delayed Massive-star Mechanical Feedback at Low Metallicity
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The classical model of massive-star mechanical feedback is based on effects at solar metallicity ( Z _⊙ ), yet feedback parameters are very different at low metallicity.

Merger Induced Globular Cluster Formation and Galaxy Evolution [PDF]
, 2008 Based on the earlier work of Gunn and McCrea we model the formation of globular clusters in merging galaxies. Neutral hydrogen observations of dwarf irregular galaxies as well as more luminous systems are used to provide the key parameters of the model ...

The CO contents of dwarf irregular galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 1987 A search has been conducted for CO in 16 dwarf irregular galaxies selected to span a wide range of infrared luminosity and color. CO was detected in six dwarf galaxies spanning the entire range in optical color and IR luminosity. The dwarf galaxies extend by three orders of magnitude in luminosity the correlation between IR and CO luminosities found ...

A turbulence study in Dwarf Irregular galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings 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.
