Characterising Nearby Luminous Infrared Galaxies

open access: yes, 2017
Luminous InfraRed Galaxies (LIRGs) in the local universe are known to be highly interacting galaxies with strong star-formation in obscured environments. LIRGs have diversity in terms of morphology and mode and location of SF, while their even more energetic counterparts, the Ultra-Luminous IR galaxies, ULIRGs, (LIR ≥ 10^12 Lsol ) are normally ...

A hard X-ray view of luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies in GOALS – I. AGN obscuration along the merger sequence [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
The merger of two or more galaxies can enhance the inflow of material from galactic scales into the close environments of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), obscuring and feeding the supermassive black hole (SMBH).

z-GAL – A Comprehensive Redshift Survey of the Brightest Herschel Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
We here introduce z-GAL, a Large Program using NOEMA, aimed at a comprehensive 3 and 2-mm spectroscopic redshift survey of a large sample of 137 bright (S500μm > 80mJy) Herschel-selected high-z dusty star forming galaxies, probing the peak of cosmic ...

Properties of the multiphase outflows in local (ultra)luminous infrared galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Galactic outflows are known to consist of several gas phases, however, so far the connection between these multiple phases has been investigated little and only in a few objects.

Warm Molecular Gas in the Central Parsecs of the Buried Nucleus of NGC 4418 Traced with the Fundamental CO Rovibrational Absorptions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigated the inner buried nucleus of a nearby luminous infrared galaxy, NGC 4418, using high-resolution spectroscopy of fundamental carbon monoxide (CO) rovibrational absorptions around 4.67 μ m for the first time.

Energetic nuclear transients in luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2022
Energetic nuclear outbursts have been discovered in luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (U / LIRGs) at unexpectedly high rates. To investigate this population of transients, we performed a search in mid-IR data from the Wide-field Infrared ...

Comprehensive Broadband X-Ray and Multiwavelength Study of Active Galactic Nuclei in 57 Local Luminous and Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies Observed with NuSTAR and/or Swift/BAT [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2021
We perform a systematic X-ray spectroscopic analysis of 57 local luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxy systems (containing 84 individual galaxies) observed with the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array and/or Swift/BAT.

Halfway to the Peak: Spatially Resolved Star Formation and Kinematics in a z = 0.54 Dusty Galaxy with JWST/MIRI

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present JWST Mid-InfraRed Instrument/Medium-Resolution Spectrometer (MIRI/MRS) observations of an infrared luminous disk galaxy, FLS1, at z ∼ 0.54. With a lookback time of 5 Gyr, FLS1 is chronologically at the midpoint between the peak epoch of star ...

Evolution of Very Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
We have completed spectroscopic observations (Wu et al. 1997a) of a sample of 73 very luminous infrared galaxies (log(LIR/L⊙) ≥ 11.5;H0 = 50 km s−1 Mpc−1) from the 2-Jy catalogue (Strauss et al. 1992) using the 2.16m telescope at the Beijing Astronomical Observatory. Spectral and interacting classifications are performed for the sample (Wu et al. 1997b)
