WE PROPOSE TO COMBINE GALEX, 2MASS AND WISE DATA TO PRODUCE A NEW SURVEY OF FAR-UV TO MID-IR FLUX MEASUREMENTS FOR A COMPREHENSIVE, EXISTING SAMPLE OF OVER 400 SDSS-SELECTED, MAJOR GALAXY INTERACTIONS AND MERGERS WITH REDSHIFTS 0.01 TO 0.05. WE WILL QUANTIFY THE LEVEL OF STAR FORMATION AND NUCLEAR BLACK HOLE GROWTH (AGN) ACTIVITY THAT IS BOTH OBSCURED BY DUST AND UNOBSCURED IN THESE IMPORTANT EVOLUTIONARY SYSTEMS AS FUNCTIONS OF MERGER STAGE (PROJECTED SEPARATION, VELOCITY DIFFERENCE), MERGER PROPERTIES (MASS RATIO, PROGENITOR MORPHOLOGY), AND MERGER ENVIRONMENT (HOST HALO MASS, HALO-CENTRIC DISTANCE). THIS PROJECT WILL BE THE SUBJECT OF A MASTERS THESIS AND WILL PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXPERIENCES. THE PROPOSED ANALYSIS OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE, ARCHIVAL DATA BASED ON THREE NASA SPACE ASTROPHYSICS MISSIONS - GALEX, 2MASS AND WISE - MEETS THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVE OF NASA'S ASTROPHYSICS DATA ANALYSIS PROGRAM. MOREOVER, THE PROPOSED STUDY SEEKS TO IMPROVE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF GALAXY MERGERS WHICH REPRESENT A FUNDAMENTAL ASPECT OF GALAXY GROWTH AND EVOLUTION IN LINE WITH THE STRATEGIC GOALS OF NASA'S RESEARCH PROGRAM AND ASTROPHYSICS RESEARCH PROGRAM.
