Supernova Remnants in the Irregular Galaxy NGC 4449
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

The oxygen abundance deficiency in irregular galaxies [PDF]
The observed oxygen abundances in a number of irregular galaxies have been compared with predictions of the closed-box model of chemical and photometric evolution of galaxies. Oxygen is found to be deficient with respect to the predicted abundances. This

Lopsidedness in dwarf irregular galaxies [PDF]
We quantify the amplitude of the lopsidedness, the azimuthal angular asymmetry index, and the concentration of star forming regions, as represented by the distribution of the H$\alpha$ emission, in a sample of 78 late-type irregular galaxies.

Diffuse Ionized Gas in the Dwarf Irregular Galaxy DDO 53
The spectral characteristics throughout the dwarf irregular galaxy DDO 53 are studied. The results are very similar to those for other irregular galaxies: high excitation and low values of the [SII]/Halpha ratio.

Safe, Simple, and Rapid: A Minimally Invasive Coding Technique for Identifying Individuals of the Endangered Mongolian Racerunner (<i>Eremias argus</i>). [PDF]
The second figure clearly illustrates the key coding method proposed in this paper. ABSTRACT Individual identification is essential for wildlife population research but commonly relies on invasive methods that may negatively affect animal welfare.

Stellar population of the irregular galaxy IC 10 [PDF]
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
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 ...

Cosmic-ray driven dynamo in the medium of irregular galaxy [PDF]
We investigate the cosmic ray driven dynamo in the interstellar medium of irregular galaxy. The observations (Chyzy et al. 2000, 2003) show that the magnetic field in irregular galaxies is present and its value reaches the same level as in spiral ...

Optical observations of the nearby galaxy NGC 2366 through narrowband Hα and [SII] filters. Supernova remnants status [PDF]
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-
