Distribution and Content of Dust in Overlapping Galaxy Systems
Raymond E. White, William C. Keel, Christopher J. Conselice
Abstract
Partially overlapping galaxies are used to directly determine the effective absorption in spiral galaxy disks. The non-overlapping parts of the galaxies and symmetry considerations are used to reconstruct, via differential photometry, how much background galaxy light is lost in passing through the foreground disks.
