The presence of transitional dwarf galaxies in filaments and cluster outskirts may be closely related to preprocessing in the filament; however, the underlying mechanism is not yet comprehensively understood.

KINEMATICS OF SUPERBUBBLES AND SUPERSHELLS IN THE IRREGULAR GALAXY, NGC 1569
We present observations in the optical lines of Hα and [S ii] (λλ6717, 6731 Å) and in X-rays of the irregular galaxy, NGC 1569. The observations in Hα and [S ii] were made with the UNAM scanning Fabry–Perot interferometer (PUMA) and the X-ray data were ...

THE M81 GROUP DWARF IRREGULAR GALAXY DDO 165. I. HIGH-VELOCITY NEUTRAL GAS IN A POST-STARBURST SYSTEM [PDF]
We present new multi-configuration Very Large Array H i spectral line observations of the M81 group dwarf irregular post-starburst galaxy DDO 165. The H i morphology is complex, with multiple column density peaks surrounding a large region of very low H ...

Global properties of irregular galaxies
We present optical and radio observations of global properties for a sample of noninteracting irregular galaxies and a few comparison objects. Program galaxies were chosen primarily on the basis of their blue colors and thus may be expected to represent systems with high rates of star formation.

THE ROLE OF THE MAGNETIC FIELD IN THE INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM OF THE POST-STARBURST DWARF IRREGULAR GALAXY NGC 1569 [PDF]
NGC 1569 is a nearby dwarf irregular galaxy which underwent an intense burst of star formation 10–40 Myr ago. We present observations that reach surface brightnesses 2–80 times fainter than previous radio continuum observations and the first radio ...

The Star Clusters in the Irregular Galaxy NGC 4449 [PDF]
We examine the star clusters in the irregular galaxy NGC 4449. We use a near-infrared spectrum and broad-band images taken with the HST to place a limit of 8--15 Myrs on the age of the bright central ojbect in NGC 4449.

THE ACS LCID PROJECT. II. FAINT VARIABLE STARS IN THE ISOLATED DWARF IRREGULAR GALAXY IC 1613 [PDF]
We present the results of a new search for variable stars in the Local Group (LG) isolated dwarf galaxy IC 1613, based on 24 orbits of F475W and F814W photometry from the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) on board the Hubble Space Telescope.

The Isaac Newton Telescope Monitoring project: Stellar population in the IC 10 dwarf irregular galaxy [PDF]
We have conducted an optical monitoring survey of IC 10 dwarf irregular galaxy in the Local Group, using the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) with the wide-field camera (WFC), to identify the Asymptotic Giant Branch stars (AGBs).

Internal kinematics of spiral galaxies in distant clusters IV. Gas kinematics of spiral galaxies in intermediate redshift clusters and in the field [PDF]
(Abridged) We trace the interaction processes of galaxies at intermediate redshift by measuring the irregularity of their ionized gas kinematics, and investigate these irregularities as a function of the environment (cluster versus field) and of morphological type (spiral versus irregular). Our sample consists of 92 distant galaxies.

Deep CO Observations and the CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor in DDO 154, a Low Metallicity Dwarf Irregular Galaxy [PDF]
We present a deep spectroscopic search for CO emission in the dwarf irregular galaxy DDO 154, which has an Oxygen abundance of only 1=20 of the solar value.
