Galaxy morphology /

Galaxy morphology is a long-standing subfield of astronomy, moving from visual qualifications to quantitative morphometrics. This book covers the descriptions developed by astronomers to describe the appearance of galaxies, primarily in optical, ultraviolet and near-infrared wavelengths.

545 |a Benne Holwerda is an associate professor at the University of Louisville, and is a leading expert in astronomical source catalogues and object characterization. He has worked on several projects that involve galaxy morphology classification and characterization; the Spitzer Survey of Spiral Structure in Galaxies, the Galaxy and Mass Assembly survey and the GHOSTS survey which explore extremes of low surface brightness. He authored the application of galaxy morphometrics on HI images.
