Wolf-Rayet Stars in Very Young Starburst Galaxies

Abstract

Preliminary results from spectrophotometric observations of galaxies with very young starbursts are presented. Starburst galaxies with an age of the burst in the range between 3 and 6 Myr have been observed and new detections of Wolf-Rayet galaxies are reported. We discuss the origin of high excitation nebular lines observed in these galaxies and their possible link with the population of Wolf-Rayet stars.
