We present the unexpected discovery of four ultra diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in a group environment. We recently identified seven extremely low surface brightness galaxies in the vicinity of the spiral galaxy M101, using data from the…
Measurements of the H-alpha flux from 30 neighboring dwarf galaxies are presented. After correction for absorption, these fluxes are used to estimate the star formation rate (SFR). The SFR for 18 of the galaxies according to the H-alpha…
We have carried out a survey searching for H alpha emitting galaxies at z~0.24 using a narrow band filter tuned with the redshifted line. The total sky area covered was 0.19 square degrees within the redshift range 0.228 to 0.255 in a set…
We present the H$\alpha$ images of ultra-flat (UF) spiral galaxies seen practically edge-on. The galaxies have the angular diameter in the $B$ band $a> 1.9^{\prime}$ and the apparent axial ratio $(a/b) >10$. We found that their H$\alpha$…
(Abridged) We present H-alpha images of five edge-on galaxies: NGC 891, NGC 4631, NGC 4244, NGC 3003, and UGC 9242. We also analyze [SII] 6717+6731A and [OIII] 5007A images of NGC 4631. We analyze the ionized gas content, with particular…
