Supernova Remnants in the Irregular Galaxy NGC 4449
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The nearby irregular galaxy NGC 4449 has a star formation rate of ∼0.4 M _☉ yr ^−1 and should host of order 70 supernova remnants (SNRs) younger than 20,000 yr, a typical age for SNRs expanding into an interstellar medium (ISM) with a density of 1 cm ^−3

Stellar population of the irregular galaxy IC 10 [PDF]
Astronomy Letters, 2009 Based on our observations with the 6-m BTA telescope at the Special Astrophysical Observatory, the Russian Academy of Sciences, and archival Hubble Space Telescope images, we have performed stellar photometry for several regions of the irregular galaxy IC 10, a member of the Local Group.

Catching Tidal Dwarf Galaxies at a Later Evolutionary Stage with ALFALFA
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present deep optical imaging and photometry of four objects classified as “Almost-Dark” galaxies in the Arecibo Legacy Fast Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFALFA) survey because of their gas-rich nature and extremely faint or missing optical emission in ...

Optical observations of the nearby galaxy NGC 2366 through narrowband Hα and [SII] filters. Supernova remnants status [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2019 We present detection of 64 H II regions, three superbubbles and two optical supernova remnant (SNR) candidates in the nearby irregular galaxy NGC 2366. The SNR candidates were detected by applying [S II]/Hα ratio criterion to observations made with the 2-

Near-IR TRGB Distance Modulus of Dwarf Irregular Galaxy IC 1613 [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2009 The JHKs magnitudes of the red giant branch tip (TRGB) and the distance moduli of the nearby dwarf irregular galaxy IC 1613 have been determined from the nearinfrared luminosity functions (LFs) of the resolved stars in the galaxy.

Magnetic Fields in Irregular Galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008 Magnetic fields are an important component of the interstellar medium, especially in low-mass galaxies like irregulars where the magnetic pressure may be significant. However, few irregular galaxies have observed magnetic field structures. Using the VLA, the GBT, and the ATCA, we have observed several irregular galaxies in the radio continuum to ...

Near-IR TRGB Distance to Nearby Dwarf Irregular Galaxy NGC 6822 [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2008 We report the distance modulus of nearby dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 estimated from the so-called Tip of Red-giant Branch (TRGB) method. To detect the apparent magnitudes of the TRGB we use the color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) and luminosity functions
