Formation of a Massive Lenticular Galaxy Under the Tidal Interaction with a Group of Dwarf Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Based on the atomic-hydrogen (H i ) observations using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, we present a detailed study of the gas-rich massive S0 galaxy NGC 1023 in a nearby galaxy group.

Dwarf galaxy formation induced by galaxy interactions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2000
Growing evidence has been accumulated for that some gas-rich dwarf galaxies are formed from material liberated by galaxy collisions and/or mergers. Also, gas-poor dwarf elliptical galaxies are often found in the central regions of clusters of galaxies.

Isolated Galaxies versus Interacting Pairs with MaNGA [PDF]

open access: yesGalaxies 2015, 3(4), 156-163, 2015
We present preliminary results of the spectral analysis on the radial distributions of the star formation history in both, a galaxy merger and a spiral isolated galaxy observed with MaNGA. We find that the central part of the isolated galaxy is composed by older stellar population ($\sim$2 Gyr) than in the outskirts ($\sim$7 Gyr).

Galaxy Zoo: Mergers – Dynamical models of interacting galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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.

The Larson-Tinsley Effect in the UV: Interacting vs. `Normal' Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We compare the UV-optical colors of a well-defined set of optically-selected pre-merger interacting galaxy pairs with those of normal spirals. The shorter wavelength colors show a larger dispersion for the interacting galaxies than for the spirals. This result can best be explained by higher star formation rates on average in the interacting galaxies ...

Galaxy Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1998
Interacting galaxies are a natural arena for studies of non-equilibrium stellar dynamics, gas dynamics, and thermodynamics. Only galaxy formation itself is as deeply concerned with as many different aspects of dynamics, and the connection between interactions and the formation of galaxies is probably no coincidence.

H ii REGION LUMINOSITY FUNCTION OF THE INTERACTING GALAXY M51 [PDF]

The isolated interacting galaxy pair NGC 5426/27 (Arp 271) [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2004
We present H alpha observations of the isolated interacting galaxy pair NGC 5426/27 using the scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer PUMA. The velocity field, various kinematical parameters and rotation curve for each galaxy were derived.
