3D Spectroscopic Observations of Star-Forming Dwarf Galaxies

Published 15 May 2011 in astro-ph.CO and astro-ph.IM | (1105.2962v1)

Abstract: We give an introduction into the observational technique of integral field or 3D spectroscopy. We discuss advantages and drawbacks of this type of observations and highlight a few science projects enabled by this method. In the second part we describe our 3D spectroscopic survey of Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies. We show preliminary results from data taken with the VIMOS integral field unit and give an outlook on how automated spectral analysis and forthcoming instruments can provide a new view on star formation and associated processes in dwarf galaxies.
