Abstract:
The results of the follow-up spectroscopy of 178 emission-line galaxy
(ELG) candidates from the Case objective-prism survey and nine
Markarian galaxies with the 6m telescope are described. Only the
candidates classified in the Case survey as those with emission lines
were observed with the aim to form a statistical sample of blue
compact galaxies (BCGs) with strong emission lines in the zone
RA: 8h-16h, and DE: =+29deg-+38deg. We present the redshifts,
equivalent widths and flux ratios for the strongest lines and the
spectrum type for most of the galaxies with detected emission lines. A
significant fraction (about 23%) of the observed Case galaxies do not
show emission lines in blue. Preliminary analysis of the data is
presented and the properties of the observed ELGs are compared with
those of other known samples.
