We also derive the O/H and the Fe/O ratios in the extremely metal poor galaxy SBS 0335-052. We estimate the dust depletions of Mg, Si, and Fe in Galactic and extragalactic H II regions. Based on these depletions we estimate the fraction of O atoms embedded in dust as a function of the O/H ratio. We find an increasing depletion of O with increasing O/H. The O depletion increases from about 0.08 dex, for the metal poorest H II regions known, to about 0.12 dex, for metal rich H II regions. This depletion has to be considered when comparing nebular with stellar abundances.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-08-27T19:17:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dust abundance ratios", "fe/h gas", "extragalactic", "extremely metal poor galaxy sbs" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/0004-637X/724/1/791", "journal": "The Astrophysical Journal", "year": 2010, "month": "Nov", "volume": 724, "number": 1, "pages": 791 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 856942, "adsabs": "2010ApJ...724..791P" } } }
