    Abstract

    © 2015 The Author Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society. Recent observations have discovered a number of extremely gas-rich very faint dwarf galaxies possibly embedded in low-mass dark matter haloes. We investigate star formation histories of these gas-rich dwarf ('almost dark') galaxies both for isolated and interacting/merging cases. We find that although star formation rates (SFRs) are very low (
