Active galactic nuclei and galaxy interactions [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007 We perform a statistical analysis of AGN host characteristics and nuclear activity for AGNs in pairs and without companions. Our study concerns a sample of AGNs derived from the SDSS-DR4 data by Kauffmann et al (2003) and pair galaxies obtained from the same data set by Alonso et al. (2006).

Interaction of Galaxies with the ICM
, 2003 In recent years a wealth of data and detailed hydrodynamical simulations have appeared that show the effects of interactions between the ICM and galaxies. Single dish observations show that cluster galaxies are deficient in their HI content out to 2 Abell radii. The deficient galaxies tend to be on radial orbits.

Galaxy Interactions, Star Formation History, and Bulgeless Galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008 AbstractHierarchical ΛCDM models provide a successful paradigm for the growth of dark matter on large scales, but they face important challenges in predicting how the baryonic components of galaxies evolve. I present constraints on two aspects of this evolution: (1) The interaction history of galaxies over the last 7 Gyr and the impact of interactions ...

The SEDs of interacting galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 AbstractThe evolution of galaxies is greatly influenced by their interactions. As part of a program to study interacting galaxies, we have measured and modeled the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) from the ultraviolet (UV) to the far-infrared (FIR).

INTERACTIONS OF GALAXIES IN THE GALAXY CLUSTER ENVIRONMENT [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 We study the dependence of galaxy properties on the clustercentric radius and the environment attributed to the nearest neighbor galaxy using the SDSS galaxies associated with the Abell galaxy clusters. We find that there exists a characteristic scale where the properties of galaxies suddenly start to depend on the clustercentric radius at fixed ...

Interacting galaxies and cosmological parameters [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2006 We propose a (physical)-geometrical method to measure the present rates of the density cosmological parameters for a Friedmann-Lemaitre universe. The distribution of linear separations between two interacting galaxies,when both of them undergo a first massive starburst, is used as a standard of length.

Triggering Star Formation by Galaxy-Galaxy Interactions [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004 We analyzed the effects of having a close companion on the star formation activity of galaxies in the 8K galaxy pair catalog selected from the 2dFGRS. We found that, statistically, galaxies with rp < 25h−1 kpc and ΔV < 100km s−1 have enhanced star formation with respect to isolated galaxies with the same luminosity and redshift distribution.

THE METALLICITY EVOLUTION OF INTERACTING GALAXIES [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2012 Nuclear inflows of metal-poor interstellar gas triggered by galaxy interactions can account for the systematically lower central oxygen abundances observed in local interacting galaxies. Here, we investigate the metallicity evolution of a large set of simulations of colliding galaxies.

Galaxy Zoo: Mergers – Dynamical models of interacting galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 The dynamical history of most merging galaxies is not well understood. Correlations between galaxy interaction and star formation have been found in previous studies, but require the context of the physical history of merging systems for full insight into the processes that lead to enhanced star formation.
