Galaxy Zoo Green Peas: Discovery of A Class of Compact Extremely Star-Forming Galaxies
We investigate a class of rapidly growing emission line galaxies, known as "Green Peas", first noted by volunteers in the Galaxy Zoo project because of their peculiar bright green colour and small size, unresolved in SDSS imaging. Their appearance is due to very strong optical emission lin...
