Abundances in Damped Lyα Galaxies
Damped Lyα galaxies provide a sample of young galaxies where chemical abundances can be derived throughout the whole universe with an accuracy comparable to that for the local universe. Despite a large spread in redshift, HI column density and metallicity, DLA galaxies show a remarkable uniformity in the elemental ratios rather suggestive of similar chemical evolution if not of an unique popula...
متن کاملAbundances of KISS Galaxies
We report results from the third in a series of nebular abundance studies of emission-line galaxies from the KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey (KISS). Galaxies with coarse metallicity estimates of 12 + log(O/H) less than 8.2 dex were selected for observation. Spectra of 14 galaxies, which cover the full optical region from [OII]λλ3727,3729 to beyond [SII]λλ6717,6731, are presented, and ab...
متن کاملHeavy Element Abundances in Blue Compact Galaxies
We present high-quality ground-based spectroscopic observations of 54 supergiant H II regions in 50 low-metallicity blue compact galaxies with oxygen abundances 12 + log O/H between 7.1 and 8.3. We use the data to determine abundances for the elements N, O, Ne, S, Ar and Fe. We also analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Faint Object Spectrograph archival spectra of 10 supergiant H II regions to ...
متن کاملNebular abundances in galaxies: Beware of biases
The derivation of nebular abundances in galaxies using strong line methods is simple and quick. Various indices have been designed and calibrated for this purpose, and they are widely used. However, abundances derived with such methods may be significantly biased, if the objects under study have different structural properties (hardness of the ionizing radiation field, morphology of the nebulae...
متن کاملChemical Abundances in Virgo Spiral Galaxies
Received ; accepted 1 Based on observations obtained at the Multiple Mirror Telescope, a joint facility of the University of Arizona and the Smithsonian Institution. ABSTRACT We present new measurements of chemical abundances in H II regions in spiral galaxies of the Virgo cluster and a comparison of Virgo galaxies and eld spirals. With these new data there now exist nine Virgo spirals with abu...
