Journal ArticleDOI

Optical structure and star formation in blue compact dwarf galaxies. I. Observations and profile decomposition

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new B and R CCD surface photometry for a sample of 4 Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies (BCDs) and 2 higher luminosity starburst galaxies.

Successful Commissioning of FORS1 - the First Optical Instrument on the VLT

TL;DR: The FOcal Reducer/low dispersion Spectrograph (FORS) as mentioned in this paper was the first VLT instrument to be designed and built outside ESO by a consortium of three German astronomical institutes (Landessternwarte Heidelberg, University Observatories of Gottingen and Munich).
