The Star-Forming Properties of Violently Interacting Galaxies
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe effects of galaxy-galaxy collisions on star formation are investigated for a large, morphologically selected sample of strongly interacting disk-type galaxies. Current star formation rates, stellar contents, and spatial distributions of star forming sites are explored on both global and nuclear scales via narrow-band imaging and spectrophotometry.
