Here we make publicly available our average local low-metallicity template described in Shivaei, Popping, Rieke et al. (2022). Please cite this paper when using the template.
| avg_lowmetal.txt |
The average local low-metallicity template is constructed based on IRS spectra and Spitzer and Herschel photometry of nine high luminosity local dwarf galaxies: Haro 2, Haro 3, Haro 11, He 2-10, II Zw 40, Mrk 1089, NGC 1140, UM 448, and HS0052+2536. Their metallicities vary between 12+log(O/H)=8.1-8.4 (Madden et al. 2013) with an average of 8.3. This template is shown in Shivaei et al. (2022) to accurately represent the IR SED of subsolar metallicity galaxies at z~2. Refer to the paper for details.
