Galaxy Zoo Starburst Talk
Spectrum show candidate SNe, see c_cld's Jan 2012 GZ forum thread: http://www.galaxyzooforum.org/index.php?topic=279846.0
@game-weaver et al: this is two interacting disk galaxies, a 'merger' The thin line-like features are 'tidal tails', produced by gravity
#overlap, rather than merger
1 o'clock gal is far background; bright point is foreground star
#ring
yes, it's a star #bulgeless
that's an #asteroid
#merger? or #overlap?
it has a bulge, but it's far from obvious
#nbs
strange colored artifact(s) - lower right of galaxy
#polarring?
#overlap (Eos in the background) dust cloud (lower-right side)?
#disturbedspiral
#overlap
#blessEos?
#strange, inclined lenticular?
extended, mushy halo/corona
#blueelliptical
#blessEos
#post-merger?
#overlap #ellipticalbugle #lenticular?
strange ... in a way I can't put my finger on; #overlap?
Is the blue cloud/haze covering most of the RHS real? or an artifact?
could be; spectrum is ratty, with no obvious lines
It's a post-Q candidate; the Balmer absorption lines are broad. It that weird or what?!
A+AGN?
#poorqualityimage - the green chaff all over is an #artifact
#artifact; several other point-like objects (stars) nearby have similar color gradients
#AGN?
possible #overlap
#dustlane?
#polarring, a polar ring galaxy (or a candidate)
#bluepea intense starburst
#overlap?
distant (z=0.248) #post-quench galaxy
I can't see any Green Pea; this is a nice #Eos (edge-on spiral) with a very small bulge
yes, it's a foreground star, in our own galaxy
Fairly normal #Eos for me; the bright purplish-blue blob is a foreground star; the yellow blobs far distant ellipticals
#overlap (two ETGs)? or #merger? Even the spectrum doesn't provide an obvious answer (it should)!
haasvos got this to classify before, but did not comment! #AGNcloud #BluePea #voorwerp possible #overlap
#nbs #asteroid (far right, towards bottom)
orange strip (nearly vertical) is an #artifact? nice E+A spectrum
two symmetrical red dots: #lens?
#polar-ring?
#diffractionspikes?
#postGreenPea?
#compactETG (early-type galaxy) #fadingAGN?
#AGN
#badspectrum That's not a z=0.327 galaxy; it's either a star or some sort of strange QSO
#nbs The spectrum is likely affected too; maybe stellar mass and/or redshift unreliable?
#AGN? Nice #Eos
#blessEos (bulge-less Eos) #warpeddisk
#overlap AND #merger?
#poorqualityimage (linear features that are surely artifacts)
Are there very faint #tidaltails?
#poorqualityimage
#Xshapedbulge?
#Eos (edge-on spiral)? or E6/7?
#nbs (near bright star), a tag I have used many a time in my own research!
