New release of DR12 "boss" spectrum and classified Starburst

similar than green pea but lower redshift 😃

Lovely spectrum- hardly any noise! Light travel time round a billion years, so a local galaxy. Perhaps a 'grape'? DR12 looks promising.

The spectrum for 1237663543148740698 is really quite amazing. Not a new discovery- referenced as a starburst in several earlier papers (including Izotov 2006). The luminosity is remarkably high.
