What collisional debris can tell us about galaxies

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

I review what tidal tails in particular, collisional debris in general, might tell us about galaxies (their structure, current content and past mass assembly) about mergers in the nearby and distant Universe (major vs minor, wet vs dry, number evolution) and finally about the laws of gravity.
