We present a deep, wide-field optical study of the M81 group dwarf galaxy Holmberg II (HoII) based on Subaru/Suprime-Cam imaging. Individual stars are resolved down to I~25.2, i.e. about 1.5 mag below the tip of the red giant branch (RGB).…

Neutral hydrogen VLA D-array observations of the dwarf irregular galaxy HoII, a prototype galaxy for studies of shell formation, are presented. HI is detected to radii over 16' or 4 R_25, and M_HI=6.44x10^8 M_sun. The total HI map has a…
