Local Analogs of Potential Ionizers of the Intergalactic Medium: Compact Star-forming Galaxies with Intense C IV λ1550 Emission

Local Analogs of Potential Ionizers of the Intergalactic Medium: Compact Star-forming Galaxies with Intense C IV λ1550 Emission

We performed spectroscopic analyses of five local compact star-forming galaxies (CSFGs) with extremely high [O iii ]/[O ii ] (O _32 ) ratios (>20). These targets remarkably share similar properties with high-redshift C iv emitters at z  > 6: high H β equivalent widths (EWs > 200Å), extreme...
