THE CHEMISTRY OF IRREGULAR GALAXIES

Abstract

I review the current data on abundances in irregular galaxies, with special emphasis on recent results on C/O and Si/O from observations with the Hubble Space Telescope. The abundance data for He, C, N, and O in irregular galaxies is discussed in the context of models for the evolution of dwarf galaxies.
