Tadpole galaxies in the Hubble UDF

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

In the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF, Cat. <II/258>) an abundance of galaxies is seen with a knot at one end plus an extended tail, resembling a tadpole.

Description

These "tadpole galaxies" appear dynamically unrelaxed - presumably in an early merging stage - where tidal interactions likely created the distorted knot-plus-tail morphology. Here we systematically select tadpole galaxies from the HUDF and study their properties as a function of their photometric redshifts.
