Probing the physics of interacting galaxies [PDF]

open access: greenAstrophysics and Space Science, 2003
Both Arp 140 and Arp 104 reveal extended tidal tails in the HI. The Halpha and FIR fluxes of Arp 140 yield similar SFR of ~0.8 solar masses per year. In contrast the Halpha flux of Arp 104 yields a SFR of ~0.05 solar masses per year, ~ 20 times smaller than that obtained from the FIR flux.

Interacting galaxies and mergers

open access: greenNature Astronomy, 2019
Two landmark papers in the 1970s contributed strongly to establishing the importance of galaxy interactions and mergers in the formation and evolution of galaxies, using only gravity, and the ensuing dynamical friction.

INTERACTIONS OF GALAXIES IN THE GALAXY CLUSTER ENVIRONMENT [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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 ...

The SEDs of interacting galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 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).

Testing the Radio-selection Method of Dual Active Galactic Nuclei in the Stripe 82 Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We test the merger-induced dual active galactic nuclei (dAGNs) paradigm using a sample of 35 radio galaxy pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 field.

Triggering Star Formation by Galaxy-Galaxy Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - 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.

What is driving the evolution of the far-infrared radio correlation? [PDF]

open access: yesZbornik Matice Srpske za Prirodne Nauke, 2019
Far infrared-radio correlation represents a linear relationship between far-infrared (FIR) and radio emission in star-forming galaxies. Previous observations have confirmed that this correlation is maintained over a large range of redshift and ...

S0 Galaxies: Outer Gas Accretion through Tidal Interaction and Minor Merging

open access: yesGalaxies, 2023
To clarify the sources of outer gas accretion onto disk galaxies, we study the vicinity of four interacting galaxy systems in the Hα emission line by using the scanning Fabry–Perot interferometer of the 6m telescope of the Special Astrophysical ...
