We use the data to determine abundances for the elements N, O, Ne, S, Ar, and Fe. We also analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Faint Object Spectrograph archival spectra of 10 supergiant H II regions to derive C and Si abundances in a subsample of seven blue compact galaxies. The main result of the present study is that none of the heavy element-to-oxygen abundance ratios studied here (C/O, N/O, Ne/O, Si/O, S/O, Ar/O, Fe/O) depend on oxygen abundance for blue compact galaxies with 12+Log[O/H]{&lt;=}7.6 (Z{&lt;=}Z_{solar}/20).</description><source format="bibcode">1999ApJ...511..639I</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/511/639</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/AJ/116/2805">J/AJ/116/2805 : H II regions in spiral galaxies (Van Zee+, 1998)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+AS/139/1">J/A+AS/139/1 : HI in Byurakan blue comact galaxies (Thuan+, 1999)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+AS/147/169">J/A+AS/147/169 : Accurate positions of 2978 SBS objects (Bicay+, 2000)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/373/24">J/A+A/373/24 : Blue compact galaxies from SBS (Pustilnik+ 2001)</relatedResource></relationship></content><rights>https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html</rights><capability><interface xsi:type="vr:WebBrowser"><accessURL use="full">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/511/639</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/511/639</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/511/639</mirrorURL></interface></capability><capability><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/511/639</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/511/639</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/511/639</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface></capability><capability standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/TAP#aux"><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap</accessURL></interface></capability><coverage><footprint ivo-id="ivo://ivoa.net/std/moc"/><waveband>Optical</waveband></coverage><tableset><schema><name>default</name><table><name>J/ApJ/511/639/table1</name><description>Abundance ratios from optical observations</description><column><name>recno</name><description>Record number assigned by the VizieR team.
