On the basis of new spectroscopic observations of the blue compact dwarf galaxy IZw18 in the narrow spectral range between 4000Å and 4500Å absorption components of Hγ and Hδ lines were discovered. Equivalent widths of Hγ and Hδ lines have been measured. From available data the OB population of IZw18 was analyzed.

AbstractRecent results on NGC 2915, the first blue compact dwarf galaxy to have its mass distribution modelled, are summarised. NGC 2915 is shown to have HI well beyond its detected optical extent. Its rotation curve is well determined and fit with maximum disk mass models. The dark matter halo dominates the mass distribution at nearly all radii, and has a very dense core compared to those of normal galaxies. High-mass star formation energises the HI in the centre of the galaxy, but appears to be maintained in viriai equilibrium with the dark matter halo. The implications of these results are briefly discussed.

Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxy

NGC 2915 is a blue compact dwarf galaxy embedded in an extended, low surface brightness HI disk with a bar and two-armed spiral structure. Common mechanisms are unable to explain those patterns and disk dark matter or a rotating triaxial dark halo were proposed as alternatives. Hydrodynamical simulations were run for each case and compared to observations using customized column density and kinematic constraints. The spiral structure can be accounted for by an unseen bar or triaxial halo, but the large bar mass or halo pattern frequency required make it unlikely that the spiral is driven by an external perturber. In particular, the spin parameter lambda is much higher than predicted by current CDM structure formation scenarios. Massive disk models show that when the gas surface density is scaled up by a factor of about 10, the disk develops a spiral structure matching the observed one in perturbed density as well as velocity. This suggests that the disk of NGC 2915 contains much more mass than is visible tightly linked to the neutral hydrogen. A classic (quasi-)spherical halo is nevertheless still required, as increasing the disk mass further to fit the circular velocity curve would make the disk violently unstable
