We present Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), HI 21cm observations of SBS 0335-052E and SBS 0335-052W, a close pair of dwarf galaxies, which are further unusual in being the most metal-poor star-forming galaxies known. We present…

We summarize the progress in identifying and observational study of extremely metal-deficient (XMD) gas-rich galaxies (BCGs, dIr and LSBDs). Due to volume limitations only following issues are addressed: sample creation, some statistical…

We present Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations for three (viz., DDO 68, SDSS J2104-0035 and UGC 772) of the six most metal-deficient actively star-forming galaxies known. Although there is a debate as to whether these…

It has been proposed that mergers induce starbursts and lead to important morphological changes in galaxies. Most studies so far have focused on large galaxies, but dwarfs might also experience such events, since the halo mass function is…

The study of ionized gas morphology and kinematics in nine eXtremely Metal-Deficient (XMD) galaxies with the scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer on the SAO 6-m telescope is presented. Some of these very rare objects (with currently known…

We have analyzed long-slit spectra of 12 dwarf irregular galaxies from the Arecibo Dual Beam Survey (ADBS). These galaxies represent a heterogeneous sample of objects detected by ADBS, but on average are relatively gas-rich,…

We present a project on study of groups composed of dwarf galaxies only. We selected such structures using HyperLEDA and NED databases with visual inspection on SDSS images and on digital copy of POSS. The groups are characterized by size…

We present Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) spectrophotometry and 3.5m Calar Alto telescope R, I photometry of the western component of the extremely low-metallicity blue compact galaxy SBS 0335-052. We argue that both components, separated…

The metal content of a galaxy's interstellar medium reflects the interplay between different evolutionary processes such as feedback from massive stars and the accretion of gas from the intergalactic medium. Despite the expected abundance…

We present the results of deep multicolour CCD imaging with the 6-m telescope of the pair of extremely metal-deficient gas-rich dwarf galaxies SBS 0335-052 E and W. The total magnitudes in U,B,V,R,I bands and the integrated fluxes of…

We present Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) and Keck II telescope spectrophotometry and 3.5m Calar Alto telescope R, I photometry of the western component of the extremely low-metallicity blue compact galaxy SBS 0335-052. The components,…

Our knowledge about the chemical evolution of the more luminous dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies is constantly growing. However, little is known about the enrichment of the ultrafaint systems recently discovered in large numbers in large…

I Zw 18 is a prototype Blue Compact Dwarf (BCD), characterized by a strong starburst and extremely low metallicity (Z ~ 0.02 Zsun). It has long been considered a candidate young galaxy in the Local Universe, but recent studies indicate the…

Recent observations have discovered a number of extremely gas-rich very faint dwarf galaxies possibly embedded in low-mass dark matter halos. We investigate star formation histories of these gas-rich dwarf ("almost dark") galaxies both for…

The Blue Compact Dwarf (BCD) galaxy SBS 0335--052 is one of the most metal--deficient galaxies known and one of the best candidates for a young dwarf galaxy in the process of formation. A VLA HI map reveals an unusual structure: the neutral…

We present an X-ray study of the three most metal-deficient blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies known in the local Universe, based on deep Chandra observations of SBS 0335-052 (0.025 solar abundance), SBS 0335-052W (0.02 solar abundance) and…

Although dust content is usually assumed to depend uniquely on metallicity, recent observations of two extremely metal-poor dwarf galaxies have suggested that this may not always be true. At a similar oxygen abundance of ~ 3% Zsun, the…

The build up of heavy elements and the stellar mass assembly are fundamental processes in the formation and evolution of galaxies. Although they have been extensively studied through observations and simulations, the key elements that…

The search for ``dark galaxies,'' a key prediction of the lambda cold dark matter, has yielded few viable candidates. Recently, FAST J0139+4328 was reported as the first isolated dark galaxy in the nearby universe, based on a neutral…

We study the effect of a single, instantaneous starburst on the dynamical and chemical evolution of a gas-rich dwarf galaxy, whose potential well is dominated by a dark matter halo. We follow the dynamical and chemical evolution of the ISM…
