Groups: Galaxy pre-processing
Grus quartet: Lutz et al. in prep.Kern et al 2008
•Loose groups – 2-4 spiral members +dwarf galaxies•Group masses up to approx. 1013 M
•HI-rich

SINGG Choirs• Survey for Ionisation in Gas-rich Galaxies (Meurer et al. 2006)• SINGG imaged approx 400 galaxies in Hα, selected from the
HIPASS HI catalogue (approx 15’ resolution)• 15 imaging fields contained 4 or more galaxies: dubbed the
SINGG “Choirs” (Sweet et al. 2013)

SINGG Choirs: Tidal Dwarf Galaxy laboratories?
Horellou & Koribalski 2007
TDGs – important to know how dwarf galaxies are formed for comparison with cosmological simulations
![Page 6: The J1051-17 Group: Evolution and Interaction](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812b24550346895d8f211c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
SINGG Choirs: Tidal Dwarf Galaxy laboratories?
Recent galaxy interactions- but dwarfs not situated in optically detected tidal tails
Measure metalicity and dynamics to determine properties of TDG candidates in the Choirs

Metalicity of TDG candidates
Sweet et al. 2014
Simulations by Bekki et al. 2014 (in prep) show that TDGs should have moderate metalicity, and faint

Summary• SINGG Choirs are excellent laboratories to study
the physical processes in evolving groups
• J1051-17 is a polar ring galaxy with possible ongoing HI accretion
• Implications for gas fuelling scenarios and TDG formation
• 14 more Choirs to analyse…
