Starburst Modeling of FIR / sub - mm / mm Line Emission . III . Application to Nearby Luminous Infrared
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a preliminary study of using the template of an ensemble of evolving shells we developed for M 82 (Yao 2009). we apply the model to represent various stages of starburst evolution in a well known sample of nearby luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs). In this way, we attempt to interpret the relationship between the degree of molecular excitation and ratio of far-infrared (FIR) to CO luminosity to possibly reflect different stages of the evolution of star-forming activity within their nuclear regions. Subject headings: ISM: clouds – ISM: evolution – galaxies: ISM – galaxies: starburst – galaxies: star clusters – radio lines: ISM

متن کاملEvolving Starburst Modeling of Fir/sub-mm/mm Line Emission. Ii. Application to M 82
We present starburst models for far-infrared/sub-millimeter/millimeter (FIR/sub-mm/mm) line emission of molecular and atomic gas in an evolving starburst region, which is treated as an ensemble of non-interacting hot bubbles which drive spherical shells of swept-up gas into a surrounding uniform gas medium. These bubbles and shells are driven by stellar winds and supernovae within massive star ...
متن کاملExpected Sub-mm Emission and Dust Properties of Lyman Break Galaxies at High Redshift
We investigate expected sub-mm emission and dust properties of the Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF). The SCUBA Deep Survey (Hughes et al., 1998) provides an upper limit of the 850μm flux densities of the LBGs. With this constraint, we argue that a typical ultra-violet to far-infrared spectral shape of the high-redshift LBGs is rather close to a template spectrum of low...
متن کاملSpatially–resolved Spectrophotometric Analysis and Modelling of the Superantennae
We have performed spatially–resolved spectroscopy of the double–nucleated Ultra-Luminous Infrared Galaxy IRAS 19254–7245, “the Superantennae”, along the line connecting the two nuclei. These data are analysed with a spectral synthesis code, to derive the star formation and extinction properties of the galaxy. The star formation history (SFH) of the two nuclei is similarly characterized by two d...
متن کاملThe hyperluminous infrared quasar 3C 318 and its implications for interpreting sub-mm detections of high–redshift radio galaxies
We present near-infrared spectroscopy and imaging of the compact steep-spectrum radio source 3C 318 which shows it to be a quasar at redshift z = 1.574 (the z = 0.752 value previously reported is incorrect). 3C 318 is an IRAS, ISO and SCUBA source so its new redshift makes it the most intrinsically luminous far-infrared (FIR) source in the 3C catalogue (there is no evidence of strong gravitatio...
