For twenty years, the author has contested the 'establishment' view of quasars as the most distant objects in the universe. In this book, Arp presents the original observations and fundamental data on quasars and galaxies, and explains why he has concluded that: far from being the most distant objects in the universe, quasars are associated in space with relatively nearby galaxies; quasars' enormous redshifts do not arise from the expansion of the universe, but rather are intrinsic properties of the quasars themselves; many galaxies show redshift anomalies related to quasars' redshifts; quasars and galaxies have an origin far different from that assumed in the 'standard' big-bang model of the universe; many astronomers, despite the accumulation of compelling evidence, defend what Arp believes is a fundamentally incorrect assumption about cosmic objects.

This is the largest sample yet compiled of over 6,000 disturbed galaxies: observations of galaxies in collision, galaxies exploding or ejecting material, distorted galaxies, and galaxies in near collision with each other. Volume I contains positions in right ascension and declination, galactic latitude and longitude, and super-galactic latitude and longitude, accurate to 15 arcseconds.

Madore, Barry F.

Volume II reproduces the most spectacular examples from categories such as: Interacting doubles, triples, and quartets; Galaxies with loops and tails; M51-types with companions on arms; Galaxies with jets; and Peculiar spiral galaxies including one-armed and three-armed spirals. The 1,000 photographs are arranged to give empirical continuity to the various categories.

High redshift quasars, low redshift ejecting galaxies, aligned X-ray clusters, gamma ray bursters, supposed gravitational lenses, quantized intrinsic redshifts – this book presents examples of empirical patterns of associations that repeat from region to region in the sky, suggesting evolutionary sequences and new fundamental physics. Each catalogue entry furnishes critical objects for further investigation.
