Quantifying the Poor Purity and Completeness of Morphological Samples Selected by Galaxy Colour

Rebecca J. Smethurst, Karen L. Masters, Brooke D. Simmons +7

The galaxy population is strongly bimodal in both colour and morphology, and the two measures correlate strongly, with most blue galaxies being late-types (spirals) and most early-…
