Star formation rates in isolated galaxies selected from the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey

Star formation rates in isolated galaxies selected from the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey

We have considered the star formation properties of 1616 isolated galaxies from the 2MASS XSC (Extended Source Catalog) selected sample (2MIG) with the far-ultraviolet GALEX magnitudes. This sample was then compared with corresponding properties of isolated galaxies from the Local Orphan Galaxies (LOG) catalogue and paired galaxies. We found that …
