Galaxies with distinctive signatures of leading/trailing edges

Blue = 3.6um, Green = 4.5um & Red = 8.0um.
Note:
  • 'Default' scaling provides a uniform colour scaling for all the galaxies
  • 'Stellar' scaling accentuates the stellar distribution in each galaxy
  • 'PAH' scaling accentuates the PAH emission in each galaxy
