Descripción
Preliminary results from a detailed spectrophotometric analysis of the
blue compact dwarf galaxy (BCD) Mrk 35 are presented. We have performed
deep UBVRI broad-band and Hα narrow-band optical
observations, near-infrared (JHK s) imaging and long-slit
spectroscopy of the galaxy. Mrk 35 is composed of a very young starburst
population distributed in a bar-like structure, placed on top of an
underlying, older stellar host galaxy. Using predictions of evolutionary
synthesis models, we estimate the ages of both the starburst regions and
the underlying stellar component.
