    Hmm, don't know why there's a thread, but no posts ...

    z_ph 0.076±0.0316/0.100±0.0570 SDSS J112114.46+041417.3 is the N galaxy in this merger, the one with a yellow nucleus (and perhaps no bulge), around which is lots of dust (and look at those tails!):

    Has the impending merger done more than just fire up an AGN in the N galaxy? In particular, are there doublelobes?

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) and NVSS (cyan) contours derived from FITS files produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center (J2000.0) is the galaxy SDSS J112114.46+041417.3; "z_ph" its SDSS photometric redshift.
