XIN-FA, Deng et al. The influence of galaxy interactions on some parameters of galaxies. Rev. mex. astron. astrofis [online]. 2016, vol.52, n.2, pp.241-245. ISSN 0185-1101.

From two volume-limited main galaxy samples of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 10 (SDSS DR10), we extracted paired galaxies and isolated galaxies, and performed comparative studies between them to explore the influence of galaxy interactions on age, stellar velocity dispersion and K-band luminosity. Paired galaxies have preferentially larger stellar velocity dispersions and are preferentially older than isolated galaxies. We also noted apparent differences in the K-band luminosity distribution between paired galaxies and isolated galaxies in the luminous volume-limited main galaxy sample: paired galaxies are preferentially more luminous than isolated galaxies, whereas this difference in the faint volume-limited main galaxy sample is very small.

Palabras llave : galaxies: fundamental parameters; galaxies: statistics.
