Mass Loss in Dwarf Galaxies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Abstract
Four examples of dwarf galaxies apparently undergoing mass loss are discussed. All have an Hα morphology suggesting a minor axis flow. This is supported by velocity field measurements in three cases. All also have at least one compact central object, probably a young star cluster, apparently powering the flow. Some implications of these results are briefly discussed.
