Abstract (from CDS):

In the framework of the ongoing project, aimed at the systematical studying galaxies in nearby voids, we conducted spectroscopy with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) of 62 objects from the Nearby Void Galaxy (NVG) sample. They include 8 remaining objects of the 60 pre-selected candidates to eXtremely Metal-Poor (XMP) dwarfs, two known void XMP dwarfs and 52 void dwarfs residing within the Local Volume. For 47 galaxies residing in the nearby voids, we obtained spectra of the diverse quality. For 42 of them, we detected the Hydrogen and Oxygen lines that allowed us to get estimates of O/H in the observed H II regions. For 12 of the 42 objects, we detected the faint line [O III]λ4363, that allowed us to directly derive the electron temperature Te and obtain their gas O/H by the direct method. 14 objects with the undetected [O III]λ4363 line fall to the lowest metallicities range (12+log(O/H) ≲ 7.5 dex). For them, we use a carefully checked new empirical 'Strong line' method of Izotov et al. For 14 other objects with only strong lines detected and with 12+log(O/H) of ∼7.5-8.0 dex, we used the modified version of 'semi-empirical' method of Izotov and Thuan. It accounts for effect of the excitation parameter O32 on Te. 16 new galaxies are found with parameter 12+log(O/H) ≲ 7.39 dex. Of them, four have 12+log(O/H) = 7.07-7.20 dex. Of the 60 observed NVG objects, 15 have mistaken radial velocities in HyperLEDA. They do not reside in the nearby voids.
