Description
We present a comparison of late-type galaxies (Sa and later) in intermediate-redshift clusters and in the field using images from the Advanced Camera for Surveys aboard the Hubble Space Telescope. Cluster and field galaxies are selected by matching photometric and spectroscopic catalogs of four cluster fields: Cl 0152-1357, Cl 1056-0337 (MS 1054), Cl 1604+4304, and Cl 1604+4321. Concentration, asymmetry, and clumpiness parameters are calculated for each galaxy in blue (F606W or F625W) and red (F775W or F814W) filters. Galaxy half-light radii, disk scale lengths, color gradients, and overall color are compared.
