AbstractInteraction and merging are the two most important driving forces of galaxy evolution. In contrast to the well studied major mergers of two large gas-rich disk galaxies, which may lead to Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs, LFIR>1012 L⊙), mergers between galaxies of unequal mass or a spiral and an elliptical (S+E mergers) are still poorly understood. These moderate luminosity mergers typically have LFIR > 1011 L⊙. Here, we present the results of our multiwavelength study of a sample of such kind of mergers, including interferometric HI and single-dish CO observations, optical and near-infrared imaging as well as optical spectroscopy.
