21. Impact of feedback on the ISM of extreme starburst galaxies : The case of Haro 11
Abstract : Blue compact galaxies (BCGs) are compact, metal-poor, starbursting galaxies with characteristics similar to what is expected for the young high-redshifted galaxies. BCGs are among the most active in producing a large number of massive star clusters, each containing thousands of massive stars. READ MORE

22. Dynamics of the interstellar matter in galaxies : isolated barred spiral galaxies : cloud formation processes
Abstract : The dynamical components of six isolated barred spiral (SB) galaxies are investigated. No evidence is found supporting the hypothesis of a low amount of dark matter being characteristic of SB galaxies. The presence of companion galaxies is found to correlate with an increased statistical spread in the neutral hydrogen (HI) extent. READ MORE

23. On the origin and evolution of blue compact galaxies
Abstract : This thesis is focused on the origin and evolution of blue compact galaxies (BCGs). BCGs are low mass galaxies characterised by blue colours, low chemical abundances and high star formation rates. The gas consumtion time scale is considerable shorter than the age of the universe and thus the high star formation rate must be transient. READ MORE

24. Studies of Interstellar Molecular Gas in the Magellanic Clouds
Abstract : Results of observational studies of interstellar molecular gas clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), two nearby metal-poor and dust-poor dwarf galaxies, are presented. Spectral line radiation emitted by interstellar molecules has been used to probe the physical state and the chemical composition of individual molecular clouds. READ MORE

25. Molecular gas in the galaxy M83 : Its distribution, kinematics, and relation to star formation
Abstract : The barred spiral galaxy M83 (NGC5236) has been observed in the 12CO J=1–0 and J=2–1 millimetre lines with the Swedish-ESO Submillimetre Telescope (SEST). The sizes of the CO maps are 100×100, and they cover the entire optical disk. The CO emission is strongly peaked toward the nucleus. READ MORE
