Resumen:
We carry out a statistical analysis of galaxy pairs selected from
chemical hydrodynamical simulations with the aim at assessing the
capability of hierarchical scenarios to reproduce recent observational
results for galaxies in pairs. Particularly, we analyse the effects of
mergers and interactions on the star formation (SF) activity, the global
mean chemical properties and the colour distribution of interacting
galaxies. We also assess the effects of spurious pairs.
