History and Impact of interaction/mergers over the last 8 Gyr

• Characterizing the frequency of disturbed (tidally interacting/merging) galaxies over the last 8 Gyr (z=0.24 to 0.95) using (5,528+5,389) galaxies in F850LP(z) and F606W in GEMS. (New! Website under development)

• AAS poster 2007
  Contraining the history of mergers and tidal interactions over the lasy 8 Gyr by Penner K., Jogee, S., Miller, S., & the GEMS collaboration

• Definition of Visual Class (VC) for Morphological Classifcation of Galaxies :Application to GEMS z=0.65 - 0.75 galaxies

• Comparisons of new Visual Class (VC) with old classes at z=0.7 used by team.

• CAS vs VMC Visual for interacting GEMS galaxies at z = 0.7 in F606W (rest-frame 3400A)
