Starbursts and AGN in Luminous Infrared Galaxies
Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs), which emit a significant fraction of their bolometric luminosity in the far-infrared, have LIR ≥ 10L⊙. LIRGs are a mixture of single galaxies, disk galaxy pairs, interacting systems, and advanced mergers which exhibit enhanced star-formation rates and AGN activity compared to normal galaxies. At the highest luminosities (LIR ≥ 10L⊙), Ultraluminous Infrared Ga...
متن کاملDistortion of the SED of High-z Luminous Infrared Galaxies by Strong Lensing
We present a model to estimate the effect of differential magnification on the SED of high-z ULIRGs. It is found that the ratio of the high temperature component to the low temperature component can vary with up to a factor of ten with source position on very small angular scales (∼ 0.01). This means that a correction for differential magnification is needed when deriving dust properties from s...
متن کاملSPITZER MID-INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY OF INFRARED LUMINOUS GALAXIES AT z 2. I. THE SPECTRA
We present the mid-infrared spectra obtained with the Spitzer IRS for 52 sources, selected as infrared luminous, zk1 candidates in the Extragalactic First Look Survey. The sample selection criteria are f24 mk 0:9 mJy, f (24 m)/ f (8 m)k 3:16, and f (24 m)/ f (0:7 m)k10. Of the 52 spectra, 47 (90%) produced measurable redshifts based solely on the mid-IR spectral features, with 35/47 (74%) at 1:...
متن کاملHerschel and Galaxies/agn
Herschel will represent a breakthrough in the study of nearby gas-rich and gas-poor galaxies, as it will for the first time permit imaging photometric and spectroscopic observations of their ISM in the FIRsubmm wavelength range. The unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution of Herschel will furthermore yield a breakthrough in our understanding of distant galaxies and AGN, as their gas an...
متن کاملMid - infrared spectroscopy of two luminous submillimeter galaxies at z ∼ 2 . 8
Using the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on board the Spitzer Space Telescope, we have obtained rest frame mid-infrared spectroscopy of two bright submillime-ter galaxies. SMMJ02399-0136 at z=2.81 shows a superposition of PAH emission features and a mid-infrared continuum, indicating significant and roughly equal contributions to its bolometric luminosity from star formation and from a Compton-thi...
