Two-color picture of Arp 100: Blue=FUV; Yellow=NUV.


NUV picture of Arp 101. Arp 101 consists of the two faint extended sources near the middle and bottom of the image. The brightest UV source in the field, near the upper middle of the image, is not part of Arp 101. It is named PG 1602+149, and is much fainter in the optical (see the
SDSS image for comparison; PG 1602+149 is the very blue source near the top of that image).


A comparison of the GALEX NUV image and optical DSS images of Arp 105. Note that the bright star forming region south of the southern galaxy is *extremely* bright in the UV. Also notice the bright UV clump in the northern tail. To see the SDSS band-merged image, click

The GALEX images of Arp 245. Note the very bright point source in the northern tail. Optical spectra showed that this is a foreground subdwarf O star (Seibert et al. 2001). This star is named UITBOC 1574.


An optical true-color image of Arp 245, from Duc et al. (2001). Notice that the UV-bright star at the tip of the northern tail is not evident in this optical image.

NGC 2856, the northern galaxy in Arp 285, in the NUV and FUV. Note that these weren't observed as part of the SB&T proposal. The NUV was part of the GALEX Medium Imaging Survey survey, while the FUV data came from the All-Sky Imaging Survey.
