Scientific paper

We discuss the chemical properties of a sample of UV-selected intermediate-redshift (0<=z<=0.4) galaxies in the context of their physical nature and star-formation history. This work represents an extension of our previous studies of the rest-frame UV-luminosity function (Treyer et al., 1998, Cat. ) and the star-formation properties of the same sample (Sullivan et al., 2000, Cat. ). We revisit the optical spectra of these galaxies and perform further emission-line measurements restricting the analysis to those spectra with the full set of emission lines required to derive chemical abundances. Our final sample consists of 68 galaxies with heavy-element abundance ratios and both UV and CCD B-band photometry.
