An Atlas of GALEX UV Images of Interacting Galaxies
Mark L. Giroux, Beverly J. Smith, Curtis Struck +2
We present GALEX ultraviolet images from a survey of strongly interacting galaxy pairs, and compare with images at other wavelengths. The tidal features are particularly striking i…
Models of the Intergalactic Gas in Stephan's Quintet
Jeong-Sun Hwang, Curtis Struck, Florent Renaud +1
We use smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) models to study the large-scale morphology and dynamical evolution of the intergalactic gas in Stephan's Quintet, and compare to multiw…
Star Cluster Dissolution in Arp 284
Bradley W. Peterson, Curtis Struck, Beverly J. Smith +1
We present results from a study of proto-globular cluster candidates in the interacting galaxy system Arp 284 (NGC 7714/5). Studies of the Antennae and M51 have suggested that the…
Tidal Dwarf Galaxies, Accretion Tails, and `Beads on a String' in the `Spirals, Bridges, and Tails' Interacting Galaxy Survey
Beverly J. Smith, Mark L. Giroux, Curtis Struck +2
We have used the GALEX ultraviolet telescope to study stellar populations and star formation morphology in a well-defined sample of more than three dozen nearby optically-selected…
Dwarf Detachment and Globular Cluster Formation in Arp 305
M. Hancock, B. J. Smith, C. Struck +2
Tidal Dwarf Galaxies (TDG), concentrations of interstellar gas and stars in the tidal features of interacting galaxies, have been the subject of much scrutiny. The `smoking gun' th…
Candidate Tidal Dwarf Galaxies in Arp 305: Lessons on Dwarf Detachment and Globular Cluster Formation
Mark Hancock, Beverly J. Smith, Curtis Struck +2
To search for Tidal Dwarf Galaxies (TDGs) and to study star formation in tidal features, we are conducting a large UV imaging survey of interacting galaxies selected from the Arp (…
