Radio continuum and far-infrared emission from the galaxies in the Eridanus group

open access: yes, 2005
The Eridanus galaxies follow the well-known radio-FIR correlation. Majority (70%) of these galaxies have their star formation rates below that of the Milky Way.

Decomposing Star Formation and Active Galactic Nucleus with Spitzer Mid-Infrared Spectra: Luminosity Functions and Co-Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present Spitzer 7-38um spectra for a 24um flux limited sample of galaxies at z~0.7 in the COSMOS field. The detailed high-quality spectra allow us to cleanly separate star formation (SF) and active galactic nucleus (AGN) in individual galaxies.

Recent Star Formation in Very Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Among star forming galaxies, a spectral combination of a strong Hdelta line in absorption and a moderate [OII] emission has been suggested to be a useful method to identify dusty starburst galaxies at any redshift, on the basis of optical data alone.

ALMA Observations of Nearby Luminous Infrared Galaxies with Various AGN Energetic Contributions Using Dense Gas Tracers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present the results of our ALMA Cycle 0 observations, using HCN/HCO+/HNC J = 4-3 lines, of six nearby luminous infrared galaxies with various energetic contributions from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) estimated from previous infrared spectroscopy ...

Pairing statistics for infrared-luminous galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1993
A knowledge of the pairing fraction of IR-selected galaxies is important in understanding the role of interactions in star formation and nuclear activity. It is clear that interactions are extremely common among the most IR-luminous systems, but results have been inconsistent for less luminous systems; this may result from using peculiar morphology as ...

GOALS-JWST: Mid-infrared Molecular Gas Excitation Probes the Local Conditions of Nuclear Star Clusters and the Active Galactic Nucleus in the LIRG VV 114

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The enormous increase in mid-IR sensitivity and spatial and spectral resolution provided by the JWST spectrographs enables, for the first time, detailed extragalactic studies of molecular vibrational bands. This opens an entirely new window for the study

GROUND-BASED Paα NARROW-BAND IMAGING OF LOCAL LUMINOUS INFRARED GALAXIES. I. STAR FORMATION RATES AND SURFACE DENSITIES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) are enshrouded by a large amount of dust produced by their active star formation, and it is difficult to measure their activity in optical wavelengths.

Spitzer/IRS Mapping of Local Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present results of our program Spitzer/IRS Mapping of local Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs). The maps cover the central 20"x20" or 30"x 30" regions of the galaxies, and use all four IRS modules to cover the full 5-38 microns spectral range. We have built spectral maps of the main mid-IR emission lines, continuum and PAH features, and extracted 1D

Clusters, Clumps, Dust, and Gas (CCDG) in NGC 1614: Benchmarking Cluster Demographics in Extreme Systems

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Observations of young star clusters in a variety of galaxies have been used to constrain basic properties related to star formation, such as the fraction of stars found in clusters (Γ) and the shape of the cluster mass function (CMF).

An Hα Impression of Lyα Galaxies at z ≃ 6 with Deep JWST/NIRCam Imaging

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present a study of seven spectroscopically confirmed (Ly α -emitting) galaxies at redshift z ≃ 6 using the JWST/NIRCam imaging data. These galaxies, with a wide range of Ly α luminosities, were recently observed in a series of NIRCam broad and medium ...
