cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesspectroscopyspectrophotometryWe present echelle spectrophotometry of the blue compact dwarf galaxy NGC 5253 obtained with the VLT UVES. 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.2007ApJ...656..168Lhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/656/168CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic servicerelated-toJ/ApJ/603/503 : HST photometry in NGC 5253 and NGC 3077 (Harris+, 2004)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/656/168https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/656/168http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/656/168https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/656/168https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/656/168http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/656/168GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapOpticaldefaultJ/ApJ/656/168/table2Dereddened line intensity ratios (I(H{beta})=100)recnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
