Low-redshift lowest-metallicity star-forming galaxies in the SDSS DR14

2019 
We present a sample of low-redshift (z 7.5. The third, the direct Te method, was applied for galaxies with detected [OIII]4363 emission lines. All three methods give consistent abundances and can be used in combination or separately for selection of lowest-metallicity candidates. However, the strong-line method is preferable for spectra with a poorly detected or undetected [OIII]4363 emission line. In total, our list of selected candidates for extremely low-metallicity galaxies includes 66 objects.
