The Interstellar Medium in I Zw 18 Seen with JWST/MIRI. II. Warm Molecular Hydrogen and Warm Dust

We present JWST/MIRI spectra from the Medium-resolution Spectrometer of I Zw 18, a nearby dwarf galaxy with a metallicity of ∼3% Solar. Here, we investigate warm molecular hydrogen, H _2 , observed in spectra extracted in ∼120 pc apertures centered on eleven regions of interest. We detect seven H _2...
