SIGRID galaxy sample

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Using an optically unbiased selection process based on the HIPASS neutral hydrogen survey, we have selected a sample of 83 spatially isolated, gas-rich dwarf galaxies in the southern hemisphere with cz between 350 and 1650km/s, and with R-band luminosities and HI masses less than that of the Small Magellanic Cloud.

Description

The sample is an important population of dwarf galaxies in the local universe, all with ongoing star formation, and most of which have no existing spectroscopic data.

We are measuring the chemical abundances of these galaxies, using the integral-field spectrograph on the Australian National University 2.3m telescope, the Wide-Field Spectrograph. This paper describes our survey criteria and procedures, lists the survey sample, and reports on initial observations.
