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…

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…

The Spitzer Spirals, Bridges, and Tails Interacting Galaxy Survey: Interaction-Induced Star Formation in the Mid-Infrared

Beverly J. Smith, C. Struck, M. Hancock +3

We present Spitzer mid-infrared imaging of a sample of 35 tidally-distorted pre-merger interacting galaxy pairs selected from the Arp Atlas. We compare their global mid-infrared pr…

Large-scale Star Formation Triggering in the Low-mass Arp 82 System: A Nearby Example of Galaxy Downsizing Based on UV/Optical/Mid-IR Imaging

Mark Hancock, Beverly J. Smith, Curtis Struck +4

As part of our Spitzer Spirals, Bridges, and Tails project to help understand the effects of galaxy interactions on star formation, we analyze GALEX ultraviolet, SARA optical, and…
