Scientific paper

The nearby Blue Compact Dwarf galaxy NGC 2537 is a small irregular galaxy. We find that the C and X band radio continuum emission is dominated by a large supernova complex. Our study of the distribution and kinematics of the HI content of NGC 2537 show it to have extended spiral structure, but an inner region that is more irreuglar in its distribution of gas. We model the rotation curve and velocity field of NGC 2537 and fit both with a range of mass models. We present our results in the context of measuring the effects of stellar feedback on the distribution and kinematics of gas within the galaxy.
