A new catalogue of bar lengths and widths from HST images of 8230 galaxies shows bars are about 13% weaker at higher redshift, with longer bars in higher-mass quiescent galaxies and trends consistent with slow quenching.

Close major galaxy pairs exhibit 8.8% lower HI gas fractions and 15% higher HI star formation efficiency in S+S systems than mass- and redshift-matched isolated controls.
Citizen science classifications of 3690 SDSS galaxies reveal a weak but significant rise in log(sSFR) with visual merger stage (slope 0.148), corroborating prior merger enhancement trends.
Spirals paired with ellipticals show centrally suppressed star formation and higher gas-phase metallicities than spirals paired with other spirals, with the effect scaling with companion mass and gas kinematics.
