The Evolutionary Status of Isolated Dwarf Irregular Galaxies. I. [ITAL]UBV[/ITAL] and Hα Imaging Observations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The results of UBV and Hα imaging of a large sample of gas-rich, isolated, dwarf irregular galaxies are presented. The majority of the low-luminosity systems in this sample have no known neighbors within 200–400 kpc and thus are unlikely to have had significant interactions within the last several gigayears. The new observations confirm that dwarf irregular galaxies are blue systems, with median values for the sample of 0.42± in B-V and -0.22± in U-B. Analysis of the derived surface photometry indicates that most of these systems can be well fitted by single exponential disks and have only minor color gradients. Furthermore, the observed H II regions are distributed sparsely across the optical disk. H II region luminosity functions were constructed for those systems with a sufficient number of H II regions; the derived power-law indices are generally shallow, with a median value of -1.61±.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
