The limitations (and potential) of non-parametric morphology statistics for post-merger identification

ABSTRACT Non-parametric morphology statistics have been used for decades to classify galaxies into morphological types and identify mergers in an automated way. In this work, we assess how reliably we can identify galaxy post-mergers with non-parametric morphology statistics. Low-redshift (z ≲ 0.2),...
