The redshifted ultraviolet light from early stars at z ~ 10 contributes to the cosmic near infrared background. We present detailed calculations of its spectrum with various assumptions about metallicity and mass spectrum of early stars. We…

We present new precise measurements of electron temperatures and oxygen abundances in the southeast knot of I Zw 18, one of the most metal-poor blue compact dwarf galaxies known, using spectroscopic data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic…

I present the first results from a HST/NICMOS imaging study of the most metal-poor blue compact dwarf galaxy IZw18. The near infrared color-magnitude diagram (CMD) is dominated by two populations, one 10-20 Myr population of red super…

We report the results of near-IR imaging in J and H, of I Zw 36 ($\approx$Z$_{\odot}$/14) with the Hubble Space Telescope. Whereas imaging with the pre-COSTAR Faint Object Camera (FOC) previously resolved hot and massive stars in the…

IZw18, ever since regarded as the prototypical blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy, is, quite ironically, the most atypical BCD known. This is because its large exponential low-surface brightness envelope is not due to an old stellar host but…

The star formation history in IZw18 has been inferred from HST/WFPC2 archival data. This is done by comparing the derived V, B-V and V, V-I color-magnitude diagrams and luminosity functions with synthetic ones, based on various sets of…

We present a study of the gaseous and stellar emission in I Zw18, the most metal-poor star-forming galaxy known. Archival HST WFPC2 and FOS data have been used to analyze the spatial distribution of [OIII], Halpha, and HeII 4686. The latter…

We report the discovery of broad Wolf-Rayet emission lines in the Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) spectrum of the NW component of I Zw 18, the lowest-metallicity blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy known. Two broad Wolf-Rayet (W-R) bumps at the…

We present here spatially-resolved optical spectroscopic observations of four nearby dwarf Wolf-Rayet (WR) galaxies. The ages of the most recent starburst events in these galaxies are found between 3 and 10 Myr. The gas-phase metallicities…

'Normal' galaxies observed at z>6, when the Universe was <1 billion years old, thus far show no evidence of the cold dust that accompanies star formation in the local Universe, where the dust-to-gas mass ratio is 1%. A prototypical example…

Two blue compact dwarf galaxies Mkn 104 and I Zw 97 are studied photometrically and spectroscopically. Mkn 104 is found to contain three distinct bright star forming regions, whereas I Zw 97 is found to contain three bright and two faint…

Near-infrared surveys have revealed a substantial population of enigmatic faint galaxies with extremely red optical-to-near-infrared colours and with a sky surface density comparable to that of faint quasars. There are two scenarios for…

Ultraviolet and 21-cm observations suggest that the extremely low-metallicity galaxy, I Zw 18, is a stream-fed galaxy containing a "pocket" of pristine stars responsible for producing nebular He II recombination emission observed in I…

The results of UBV and H alpha imaging of a large sample of isolated dwarf irregular galaxies are interpreted in the context of composite stellar population models. The observed optical colors are best fit by composite stellar populations…

We selected 35 low-mass SFGs (7.9<log(M$_*$/M$_{\odot}$)<10.3) from deep spectroscopic surveys based on their CIII]1908 emission. We used follow-up NIR observations to examine their rest-optical emission lines and identify ionized outflow…

We interpret the peculiar super-solar nitrogen abundance recently reported by the James Webb Space Telescope observations for GN-z11 ($z=10.6$) using our state-of-the-art chemical evolution models. The observed CNO ratios can be…

The extent to which the ISM in galaxies is well mixed is not yet settled. Measured metal abundances in the diffuse neutral gas of star--forming gas--rich dwarf galaxies are deficient with respect to that of the ionized gas. The reasons, if…

The past few years have seen a steady progress in the determination of element abundances at high redshifts, with new and more accurate measures of metallicities in star-forming galaxies, in QSO absorbers, and in the intergalactic medium.…

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…

We present the star formation histories of 39 galaxies with high quality rest-frame optical spectra at 0.5<z<1.3 selected to have strong Balmer absorption lines and/or Balmer break, and compare to a sample of spectroscopically selected…
