The nature of hyperluminous infrared galaxies [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 Context. Hyperluminous infrared galaxies (HLIRGs) are shown to have been more abundant in early epochs. The small samples used in earlier studies are not sufficient to draw robust statistical conclusions regarding the physical properties and the power sources of these extreme infrared (IR) bright galaxies. Aims.

Near-Infrared Spectra of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 1999 Near infrared spectra with resolution R ~ 1100 in the rest wavelength range 1.8-2.2 microns have been obtained for a complete sample of 33 ultraluminous infrared galaxies. Of the 33 objects observed, 2 show evidence of a central AGN through either a broad Paschen-alpha line or emission in the 1.963 micron fine structure of [Si VI].

Mid infrared polarisation of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2001 The mid infrared polarisation properties of four Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs) have been investigated by broad band filter observations with the ISOCAM instrument on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The wavelength region from 5 to 18 mic. was selected where the emission from the putative torus peaks.

Far‐Infrared Galaxies in the Far‐Ultraviolet [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 In an effort to better understand the UV properties of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIGs), and compare them to the rest-frame UV properties of high redshift sub-mm and Lyman-break galaxies, we have obtained far- and near-UV imaging observations (lambda_{eff}=1457Å, lambda_{eff}=2364Å, respectively) of two luminous infrared galaxies (LIGs--VV 114 ...

Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999 At luminosities above ~ 1011L⊙, infrared galaxies become the dominant population of extragalactic objects in the local Universe (z < 0.5), being more numerous than optically selected starburst and Seyfert galaxies, and QSOs at comparable bolometric luminosity.

Silicates in Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 We analyze the mid-infrared (MIR) spectra of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope's Infrared Spectrograph. Dust emission dominates the MIR spectra of ULIRGs, and the reprocessed radiation that emerges is independent of the underlying heating spectrum.
