Abstract
I use integral field and long-slit spectra from the AAT and the Magellan telescope to investigate the kinematics of several clumps, recently identified along the prominent tidal tail of CG J1720-67.8 and suggested as possible tidal dwarf galaxy (TDG) candidates. A comparison of photometric and spectroscopic data with evolutionary synthesis models suggests burst ages of ~ 6 Myr for these clumps/TDG candidates.
