Description

This repository contains the data released in the paper "Harnessing the Hubble Space Telescope Archives: A Catalogue of 21,926 Interacting Galaxies" DOI will be inserted upon publication. We release the catalogue of interacting galaxies found in this work, as well as any objects of interest found during the visual inspection stage of de-contamination. Each catalogue contains the SourceID, Right Ascension, Declination and the "Status" of each object. The status shows whether an object has appeared in the astrophysical literature prior to this work. Each catalogue is contained in a .csv file. The exception to this is the interacting galaxy catalogue itself, which also contains the Zoobot prediction of each source to be an interacting galaxy. We also include the images that correspond to each catalogue. These are contained within the .tar.gz files in the repository. Each .tar.gz filename corresponds to the catalogue .csv filename. The individual filenames are the SourceIDs of the corresponding objects. Please note: These images have been saved as 150x150 gray images using only the F814W filter of the HST. Different dimension images/multi-band photometry will have to be found by the user. When input into our Zoobot model, these had been resized to 300x300. Please also note: Each sub-category of object has only been classified visually. A list of the catalogue definitions is below: agn-catalogue - Catalogue of sources containing an Active Galactic Nuclei or a Quasar. groups-catalogue - Catalogue of sources containing a Galaxy Group. high_z-catalogue - Catalogue of sources containing high redshift galaxies. interacting-catalogue - Catalogue of sources predicted to be interacting galaxies. This is the main catalogue. jellyfish-catalogue - Catalogue of sources containing a Jellyfish galaxy. jets-catalogue - Catalogue of sources containing a galaxy with a jet. lenses-catalogue - Catalogue of sources containing a gravitational lense. ly-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which are Lyman-Alpha galaxies. overlap-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain two galaxies which overlap by projection, but are not interacting. planetary-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain edge on planetary disks. radio-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain a radio source/jet. ring-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain ring galaxies. submillimetre-dusty-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain submillimetre or dusty galaxies. supernova-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain a supernova remnant. unknown-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which could not be classified visually. ysc-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain a Young Stellar Cluster. yso-catalogue - Catalogue of sources which contain a Young Stellar Object.
