Spectrophotometry in NGC 5253

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present echelle spectrophotometry of the blue compact dwarf galaxy NGC 5253 obtained with the VLT UVES.

Description

We have measured the intensities of a large number of permitted and forbidden emission lines in four zones of the central part of the galaxy. We detect faint CII and OII recombination lines, the first time that these are unambiguously detected in a dwarf starburst galaxy.

The physical conditions of the ionized gas have been derived using a large number of different line intensity ratios.
