Scientific paper

We discuss the demographics of galaxies chosen to be in the the so-called "Green Valley", a sparsely populated color-selected transition region between the "Blue Plume" (generally populated by actively star-forming spiral and irregular galaxies) and the "Red Sequence" (populated by elliptical and S0/lenticular galaxies). We are in the process of describing, typing and classifying these galaxies according to their UV morphology in an attempt to evaluate the likely physical mechanism(s) leading to their departure from the two main regions in which the majority of other galaxies are found.
