Aiming to find new extremely metal-deficient star-forming galaxies we extracted from the Two-Degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) 100 K Data Release 14 emission-line galaxies with relatively strong [O iii] λ4363 emission. Methods. Spectroscopic and photometric studies of this sample and, in addition, of 7 Tololo and 2 UM galaxies were performed on the basis of observations with the ESO 3.6m telescope. Results. All sample galaxies qualify with respect to their photometric and spectroscopic properties as blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies. Additionally, they show a good overlap with a comparison sample of ∼100 well-studied emission-line galaxies on the 12 + log (O/H) vs. log(Ne/O), log(Ar/O) and log(Fe/O) planes. From the analysis of the 2dFGRS subsample we report the discovery of two new extremely metal-deficient BCDs with an oxygen abundance 12 + log (O/H) ≤ 7.6 and of another seven galaxies with 12 + log (O/H) <∼ 7.8.

The CCD images reveal a chain of compact H II regions within the elongated low-surface-brightness (LSB) component of the galaxy. Star formation takes place mainly in two high-surface-brightness H II regions. The mean (V-I) colour of the LSB component in the surface brightness interval mu(V) between 23 and 26 mag arcsec(-2) is relatively blue similar to0.56 +/- 0.03 mag, as compared to the (V-I) similar to 0.9-1.0 for the majority of known dwarf irregular and blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies. Spectroscopy shows that the galaxy is among the most metal-deficient galaxies with an oxygen abundance 12 + log (O/H) = 7.36 +/- 0.10 in the brightest H II region and 7.48 +/- 0.12 in the second brightest H II region, or 1/36 and 1/28 of the solar value(star), respectively. Hbeta and Halpha emission lines and Hdelta and Hgamma absorption lines are detected in a large part of the LSB component. We use two extinction-insensitive methods based on the equivalent widths of (1) emission and (2) absorption Balmer lines to put constraints on the age of the stellar populations in the galaxy. In addition, we use two extinction-dependent methods based on (3) the spectral energy distribution (SED) and (4) the (V-I) colour. Several scenarios of star formation were explored using all 4 methods. The observed properties of the LSB component can be reproduced by a stellar population forming continuously since 10 Gyr ago, provided that the star formation rate has increased during the last 100 Myr by a factor of 6 to 50 and no extinction is present. However, the observational properties of the LSB component in SBS 1129+576 can be reproduced equally well by continuous star formation which started not earlier than 100 Myr ago and stopped at 5 Myr, if some extinction is assumed.

Broad-band images taken with the 2.1 m KPNO and 1.23 m Calar Alto telescopes reveal a compact high-surface-brightness H II region with ongoing star formation, located at the northwestern tip of the elongated low surface brightness (LSB) main body of the BCD. Very faint, patchy emission along the main body is seen in the H alpha image. High signal-to-noise 4.5 m Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) and 10 m Keck II telescope dagger long-slit spectroscopy of SBS 0940+544 is used to derive element abundances of the ionized gas in the brightest H II region and to study the stellar population in the host galaxy. The oxygen abundance in the brightest region with strong emission lines is 12 + log(O/H) = 7.46-7.50, or 1/29-1/26 solar, in agreement with earlier determinations and among the lowest for BCDs. H beta and H alpha emission lines and H delta and H gamma absorption lines are detected in a large part of the main body. Three methods are used to put constraints on the age of the stellar population at different positions along the major axis. They are based on (a) the equivalent widths of the emission lines, (b) the equivalent widths of the absorption lines and (c) the spectral energy distributions (SED). Several scenarios of star formation have been considered. We find that models with single instantaneous bursts cannot reproduce the observed SEDs, implying that star formation in the main body of SBS 0940+544 was continuous. The observed properties in the main body can be reproduced by a continuous star formation process which started not earlier than 100 Myr ago, if a small extinction is assumed. However, the observations can be reproduced equally well by a stellar population forming continuously since 10 Gyr, if the star formation rate has increased during last 100 Myr in the main body of SBS 0940+544 by at least a factor of five. We also investigate the age of the reddest southern region of the main body, where no absorption and emission lines are detected. On the assumption of zero extinction in this faint region, the observed spectrum can be fitted by a theoretical SED of a stellar population continuously formed with a constant star formation rate between 100 Myr and 10 Gyr ago. If, however, a small extinction of C(H beta) similar to 0.1 is present in this region then the observed spectrum can be fitted by a theoretical SED of a stellar population continuously formed between 100 Myr and 1 Gyr ago with a constant star formation rate. However, the poor signal-to-noise ratio of the spectrum and large photometric errors preclude reliable determination of the age of the southern region.

This question is central to the long-standing debate on the evolutionary state of I Zw 18. We show that the exponential intensity decrease observed in the filamentary LSB envelope of the BCD out to greater than or similar to18\" (greater than or similar to1.3 kpc assuming a distance of 15 Mpc) is not due to an evolved stellar disc underlying its star-forming regions, but rather, due to extended ionized gas emission. Ionized gas accounts for more than 80% of the line-of-sight emission at a galactocentric distance of similar to0.65 kpc (similar to3 effective radii), and for greater than or similar to30% to 50% of the R light of the main body of I Zw 18. Broad-band images reveal, after subtraction of nebular line emission, a relatively smooth stellar host extending slightly beyond the star-forming regions. This unresolved stellar component, though very compact, is not exceptional for intrinsically faint dwarfs with respect to its structural properties. However, being blue over a radius range of 5 exponential scale lengths and showing little colour contrast to the star-forming regions, it differs strikingly from the red LSB host of standard BCDs. This fact, together with the comparably blue colours of the faint C component, similar to1.6 kpc away from the main body of I Zw 18, suggests that the formation of I Zw 18 as a whole has occurred within the last 0.5 Gyr, making it a young BCD candidate. Furthermore, we show that the ionized envelope of I Zw 18 is not exceptional among star-forming dwarf galaxies, neither by its exponential intensity fall-off nor by its scale length. However, contrary to evolved BCDs, the stellar LSB component of I Zw 18 is much more compact than the ionized gas envelope. In the absence of an appreciable underlying stellar population, extended ionized gas emission dominates in the outer parts of I Zw 18, mimicking an exponential stellar disc on optical surface brightness profiles."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1051/0004-6361:20021023"],["dc.identifier.isi","000178247400013"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/9780"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/37154"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","E D P Sciences"],["dc.relation.issn","0004-6361"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Physik"],["dc.title","The blue compact dwarf galaxy I Zw 18: A comparative study of its low-surface-brightness component"],["dc.type","review"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The spectroscopic and photometric data for different regions of the LSB component are well reproduced by a young stellar population with an age t less than or equal to 250 Myr, assuming a small extinction in the range A(V) = 0-0.6 mag. Assuming no extinction, we find that the upper limit for the mass of the old stellar population, formed between 2.5 Gyr and 10 Gyr, is not greater than similar to(1/20-1) of that of the stellar population formed during the last similar to250 Myr.

We find that the BCD surface brightness profiles (SBPs) can be generally well fitted by the sum of the light of 3 distinct components: 1) an exponential component at large radii, with or without a central flattening which describes the underlying older stellar population; 2) a plateau component at intermediate radii and 3) a gaussian component at small radii. The last 2 components describe the ongoing starburst superimposed on the older stellar component. We apply the 3--component decomposition scheme to 8 more BCDs from the literature and, for the total sample of 14 galaxies, derive structural properties such as central surface brightness and scale length, and perform a deprojection to obtain the luminosity density distribution for each component. We also derive B-R color profiles and find that BCDs show generally a reddening outwards, followed by a blueing beyond a transition radius."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1051/aas:1996289"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/9739"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/60734"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","1286-4846"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Physik"],["dc.title","Optical structure and star formation in blue compactdwarf galaxies.
