An Assessment of Broadband Optical Colours as Age Indicators for Star Clusters
M. Hancock, B. J. Smith, M. L. Giroux +1
We present an empirical assessment of the use of broadband optical colours as age indicators for unresolved extragalactic clusters and investigate stochastic sampling effects on in…
Stochastic `Beads on a String' in the Accretion Tail of Arp 285
B. J. Smith, C. Struck, M. Hancock +6
We present Spitzer infrared, GALEX UV, and SDSS and SARA optical images of the peculiar interacting galaxy pair Arp 285 (NGC 2856/4), and compare with a new numerical model of the…
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…
The Spitzer Spirals, Bridges, and Tails Interacting Galaxy Survey
B. J. Smith, C. Struck, M. Hancock +3
We present Spitzer mid-infrared images from a survey of three dozen pre-merger strongly interacting galaxy pairs selected from the Arp Atlas. The global mid-infrared colors of thes…
Probing Star Formation in Interacting Galaxies Using UV and Mid-IR: The Case of Arp 82
M. Hancock, B. J. Smith, C. Struck +4
To help understand the effects of galaxy interactions on star formation, we analyze Spitzer infrared and GALEX ultraviolet images of the interacting galaxy pair Arp 82 (NGC 2535/6)…
