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

open access: bronze, 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.

The NGC 1614 interacting galaxy [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2013
Minor mergers frequently occur between giant and gas-rich low-mass galaxies and can provide significant amounts of interstellar matter to refuel star formation and power active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the giant systems.

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.

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.

THE INTERACTING GALAXY PAIR KPG 390: Hα KINEMATICS [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2010
In this work, we present scanning Fabry–Perot (FP) Hα observations of the isolated interacting galaxy pair NGC 5278/79 obtained with the PUMA FP interferometer. We derived velocity fields and rotation curves for both galaxies.

A massive interacting galaxy 510 million years after the Big Bang [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2023
James Webb Space Telescope observations have spectroscopically confirmed the existence of galaxies as early as 300 Myr after the Big Bang and with a higher number density than what was expected based on galaxy formation models and Hubble Space Telescope ...

Confronting self-interacting neutrinos with the full shape of the galaxy power spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2023
A cosmological scenario in which the onset of neutrino free streaming in the early Universe is delayed until close to the epoch of matter-radiation equality has been shown to provide a good fit to some cosmic microwave background (CMB) data, while being ...

Self-interacting dark matter and small-scale gravitational lenses in galaxy clusters [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2021
Recently, Meneghetti et al. reported an excess of small-scale gravitational lenses in galaxy clusters. We study its implications for self-interacting dark matter (SIDM), compared with standard cold dark matter (CDM).

A massive blow for ΛCDM – the high redshift, mass, and collision velocity of the interacting galaxy cluster El Gordo contradicts concordance cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
El Gordo (ACT-CL J0102-4915) is an extremely massive galaxy cluster ($M_{200} \approx 3 \times 10^{15}$ $M_{\odot}$) at redshift $z = 0.87 $ composed of two subclusters with mass ratio 3.6 merging at speed $V_{infall} \approx 2500$ km/s.

A spectroscopic study of the low redshift dwarf galaxy SDSS J134326.99+431118.7 to calculate star formation rate

open access: yesBibechana, 2021
We present a spectroscopic study of an interacting emission-line dwarf galaxy SDSS J134326.99+431118.7. We analyzed eight-strong emission lines of wavelength in a range of 3902.1Å to 6619.1Å.
