Infrared properties of close pairs of galaxies
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We discuss spectroscopy and IR photometry for a complete sample of ~800 galaxies in close pairs objectively selected from the second Center for Astrophysics redshift survey.
Description
We use the Two Micron All Sky Survey to compare near-IR color-color diagrams for our sample with the Nearby Field Galaxy Sample and with a set of IRAS flux-limited pairs from Surace and coworkers. We construct a basic statistical model to explore the physical sources of the substantial differences among these samples.
The model explains the spread of near-IR colors and is consistent with a picture in which central star formation is triggered by the galaxy-galaxy interaction before a merger occurs. For 160 galaxies we report new, deep JHK photometry within our spectroscopic aperture, and we use the combined spectroscopic and photometric data to explore the physical conditions in the central bursts.
