A model for the infrared emission of FSC 10214 + 4724
نویسنده
چکیده
A model for the infrared emission of the high redshift ultraluminous infrared galaxy FSC 10214+4724 is presented. The model assumes three components of emission: a dusty torus viewed edge-on, clouds that are associated with the narrow-line region and a highly obscured starburst. It is demonstrated that the presence of clouds in the narrow-line region, with a covering factor of 17%, can explain why the mid-infrared spectrum of FSC 10214+4724 shows a silicate feature in emission despite the fact that its torus is viewed edge-on. It is also shown that the same model, but with the torus viewed face-on, predicts a spectrum with silicate emission features that is characteristic of the spectra of quasars recently observed with Spitzer.

A Chandra observation of the z = 2 . 285 galaxy FSC 10214 + 4724 : Evidence for a Compton - thick quasar ?
We present a ≈ 20 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation of the strongly lensed z = 2.285 ultra-luminous infrared galaxy FSC 10214+4724. Although this observation achieves the equivalent sensitivity of an up-to ≈ 4 Ms Chandra exposure (when corrected for gravitational lensing), the rest-frame 1.6–26.3 keV emission from FSC 10214+4724 is weak (LX ≈ 2×10 erg s for a lensing boost of ≈ 100); a significant ...

With a redshift of 2.3, the IRAS source FSC 10214+4724 is apparently one of the most luminous objects known in the Universe. We present an image of FSC10214+4724 at 0.8μm obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 Planetary Camera. The source appears as an unresolved (< 0.06) arc 0.7 long, with significant substructure along its length. The center of curvature of the arc is located near an ...

High-resolution 1.10, 2.05, 2.12, and 2.15 km imaging of the gravitationally lensed system FSC 10214]4724 are presented. These data extend Hubble Space T elescope (HST ) observations of the lens system to redder wavelengths, thus providing the highest resolution images to date of the rest-frame optical and narrow-line (i.e., Ha ] [N II]) regions of the background quasar. The length of the arc i...
