We report on a study of 9 nearby primitive galaxies observed by Hubble's COS far-UV spectrograph that can serve as templates of high-z galaxies to be observed by JWST. By "primitive galaxies," we mean galaxies having a low stellar mass, and low gas metallicity, , whether they are local or at high redshift. We find that far-UV spectra of these...

We present a spectroscopic analysis of HST/COS observations of three massive stars in the low metallicity dwarf galaxies IC 1613 and WLM. These stars, were previously observed with VLT/X-shooter by Tramper et al. (2011, 2014) who claimed that their mass-loss rates are higher than expected from theoretical predictions for the underlying...

Context. Material accreted onto classical T Tauri stars is expected to form a hot quasi-periodic plasma structure that radiates in X-rays. Simulations of this phenomenon only partly match observations. They all rely on a static model for the chromosphere and on the assumption that radiation and matter are decoupled.Aims. We explore the effects...
