Pavo: Discovery of a Star-forming Dwarf Galaxy Just Outside the Local Group
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We report the discovery of Pavo, a faint ( M _V = −10.0), star-forming, irregular, and extremely isolated dwarf galaxy at D ≈ 2 Mpc. Pavo was identified in Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey imaging via a novel approach that combines low surface brightness

Rotationally Supported Virgo Cluster Dwarf Elliptical Galaxies: Stripped Dwarf Irregular Galaxies? [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2004 New observations of 16 dwarf elliptical galaxies in the Virgo Cluster indicate that at least seven dEs have significant velocity gradients along their optical major axis, with typical rotation amplitudes of 20-30 km/s. Of the remaining nine galaxies in this sample, 6 have velocity gradients less than 20 km/s kpc^{-1} while the other 3 observations had ...

Studying the Interstellar Medium of H II/BCD Galaxies Using IFU Spectroscopy
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 We review the results from our studies, and previous published work, on the spatially resolved physical properties of a sample of H ii/BCD galaxies, as obtained mainly from integral‐field unit spectroscopy with Gemini/GMOS and VLT/VIMOS. We confirm that, within observational uncertainties, our sample galaxies show nearly spatially constant chemical ...

A Luminous X-Ray Active Galactic Nucleus in the Dwarf–Dwarf Galaxy Merger RGG 66
The Astrophysical JournalWe present the discovery of a luminous X-ray active galactic nucleus (AGN) in the dwarf galaxy merger RGG 66. The black hole is predicted to have a mass of M _BH ∼ 10 ^5.4 M _⊙ and to be radiating close to its Eddington limit ( L _bol / L _Edd ∼ 0.75 ...
