摘要

From each of two volume-limited main galaxy samples of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 7, a paired galaxy sample and an isolated galaxy sample are constructed and comparative studies between the star formation of galaxies in pairs and isolated are performed to explore influences of galaxy interactions on star formation. It is found that isolated galaxies have an enhancement of the star formation rate and the specific star formation rate, which suggests that interactions between galaxies are not the trigger of enhanced star formation.
