Mrk 1087: a puzzling suspected Wolf-Rayet galaxy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 May 2016
Abstract
We present new observations of Mrk 1087 that indicate this galaxy is experiencing a strong star formation event due to the interaction with -at least- two nearby galaxies, one of them is a star-forming dwarf. We also discover that some of the surrounding non-stellar objects are tidal dwarfs hosting weak starbursts.
