... INSTRUMENT: SurveyCam FILTERS: Stromgren uvby, 2" square COMMENTS: remote observations are expected BRIEF SCIENCE JUSTIFICATION: Last decade numerous faint structures at the periphery of regular galaxies, as arcs, tails, or streams, have been discovered (see e.g. Martinez-Delgado et al., ... The broad-band photometry is used for observing the faint structures, but it does not allow to break the age-metallicity degeneracy efficiently. ...
