The 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 کاملIdentification of Luminous Infrared Galaxies
We present preliminary results on 24μm detections of luminous infrared galaxies at z > ∼ 1 with the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS). Observations were performed in the Lockman Hole and the Extended Groth Strip (EGS), and were supplemented by data obtained with the Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) between 3 and 9μm. The positional accuracy of ∼ 2 ′′ for most MIPS/IRAC detections prov...
متن کاملMorphology of Luminous Infrared Galaxies in the Local Universe
We study the morphology, stellar mass and star formation rate of 159 local luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) using multi-color images from Data Release 2 (DR2) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The LIRGs are selected from a cross-correlation analysis between the IRAS survey and SDSS. They are all brighter than 15.9 mag in the r-band and below redshift∼ 0.1, and can be reliably classified...
متن کاملWhat powers luminous infrared galaxies?
Based on the initial data sets taken with the ISO short wavelength spectrometer (SWS) we present a first discussion of the source of luminosity of (ultra-)luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). By comparison of observations of 2.5-45 m lines to classical starbursts and active galactic nuclei and by modelling of the line emission we show that three key representatives of this class, Arp 220, NGC 6...
متن کاملNICMOS Imaging of Infrared-Luminous Galaxies
We present near-infrared images obtained with the HST NICMOS camera for a sample of 9 luminous (LIGs: LIR(8 − 1000μm) ≥ 10 11 L⊙) and 15 ultra-luminous (ULIGS: LIR ≥ 10 12 L⊙) infrared galaxies. The sample includes representative systems classified as warm (f25μm/f60μm > 0.2) and cold (f25μm/f60μm ≤ 0.2) based on the mid-infrared colors and systems with nuclear emission lines classified as HII ...
