Scientific paper

Several conclusions have been drawn from IRAS observations and the determination of infrared fluxes of interacting bright galaxies. These are: (1) individual interacting galaxies are indistinguishable from isolated galaxies of similar blue luminosity on the basis of infrared properties; (2) no correlation was found between measures of interaction strength and indicators of enhanced star formation; and (3) comparison of the interacting and isolated samples indicates substantial differences between their distributions of far-infrared color ratios, luminosities, and surface brightnesses.
