Mid-Infrared Spectral Diagnostics of Luminous Infrared Galaxies
We present a statistical analysis of 248 luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) which comprise the Great Observatories All-sky LIRG Survey (GOALS) observed with the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on-board Spitzer in the rest-frame wavelength range between 5 and 38 μm. The GOALS sample enables a direct measurement of the relative contributions of star-formation and active galactic nuclei (AGN) to the t...
متن کاملThe Mid-infrared Emission of Local Luminous Infrared Galaxies
In this paper we use the complementary imaging capabilities of Spitzer (sensitivity) and Gemini-South/TReCS (spatial resolution) to study the mid-IR properties of local (d < 75Mpc) LIRGs. The T-ReCS 8− 10μm imaging observations of LIRGs have allowed us to spatially resolve the nuclear emission (star formation and/or AGN) and that of H ii regions in the central 3−7 kpc regions of LIRGs. From the...
متن کاملMid-Infrared Spectroscopic Properties of Ultra-Luminous Infrared Quasars
We analyse mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopic properties for 19 ultra-luminous infrared quasars (IR QSOs) in the local universe based on the spectra from the Infrared Spectrograph on board the Spitzer Space Telescope. The MIR properties of IR QSOs are compared with those of optically-selected Palomar-Green QSOs (PG QSOs) and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). The average MIR spectral featu...
متن کاملThe Luminosity - Metallicity Relation of distant luminous infrared galaxies ⋆
One hundred and five 15μm selected objects in three ISO (Infrared Space Observatory) deep survey fields (CFRS 3, UDSR and UDSF) are studied on the basis of their high quality optical spectra with resolution R>1000 from VLT/FORS2. Ninety two objects (88%) have secure redshifts, ranging from 0 to 1.16 with a median value of zmed=0.587. Considerable care is taken in estimating the extinction prope...
متن کاملStudying Distant Infrared–Luminous Galaxies with Spitzer and Hubble
New surveys with the Spitzer space telescope identify distant star–forming and active galaxies by their strong emission at far–infrared wavelengths, which provides strong constraints on these galaxies’ bolometric energy. Using early results from Spitzer surveys at 24 μm, we argue that the faint sources correspond to the existence of a population of infrared–luminous galaxies at z & 1 that are n...
