Starburst Galaxies/STIS
STIS UV-Optical Imaging of UV Bright Interacting Galaxies


Ground based images of these galaxies were obtained using the 40" telespcope at Mt. Laguna Observatory to identify the bluest regions of each galay and therefore the most likely sites for active star-formation. These were then observed with STIS in two ultraviolet bandpasses and one optical band. Below are links to the optical and Far-UV bandpasses for each of the galaxies imaged.
