Abstract:Abstract.We have observed the largest optical spectra sample of 74 blue compact galaxies. Stellar population properties of them were derived by comparing the equivalent widths of strong absorption features and continuum colors, using a method of empirical population synthesis based on star cluster sample. The results indicate that blue compact galaxies are typically age-composite stellar system, the continuum flux fractions at 5870Å due to old stellar components and young stellar components are both important … Show more
