On-going Research: A UBVR Imaging Survey of UGC Peculiars

John Hibbard (NRAO), C. Liu (Hayden Planetarium), Lee Armus (IPAC)

Preliminary results of a UBVR-band imaging survey of UGC systems with tidal tails, plumes, shells, bridges, etc.

The goal of this survey is to image a representative sample of ~75 nearby peculiar galaxies in UBVR to simulate the appearance of such galaxies when placed at redshifts from z=0 to z=1.5. The local sample is drawn from a large optically defined sample of ~600 peculiars chosen from the UGC. These data will be used to determine if intermediate redshift peculiar galaxies are similar to their local analogs (see e.g. Hibbard & Vacca 1997).

B,V,R-band observations from UH 88" Tek2048 f/10 Observations (unless noted otherwise)
