Targets are selected from the 3D-Hubble Space Telescope Treasury survey. The six detected galaxies have a mean [N II]λ6584/Hα ratio of 0.27 ± 0.01, with a small standard deviation of 0.05. This mean value is similar to that of | Free Keywords: | galaxies: abundances; galaxies: evolution | External Publication Status: | published | Document Type: | Article |
