Abstract
”Green Pea” (GP) galaxies are the best local analogs of young high-redshift galaxies and precious laboratories to study star formation and feedback under extreme physical conditions. Studying the mechanisms governing enhanced star formation in dwarf galaxies is essential to understand how they assemble and evolve. However, essential pieces of information are missing. Here we propose to obtain unbiased, 2D high quality spectroscopic observations with GMOS-IFU using the B1200 grating. These deep, high S/N data tracing both star formation and gas kinematics, are intended to spatially resolve - at kpc scales - the main kinematic components already identified in the Halpha emission-line previously observed using the R831 grating with the GMOS-IFU. The blue data, together with the red one, will allow us to perform for the first time a chemodynamical study for this kind of objects.
