NICMOS Imaging of Infrared-Luminous Galaxies [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 2000
We present near-infrared images obtained with the HST NICMOS camera for a sample of 9 luminous (LIGs: L_IR (8-1000 microns) >~ 10^11 L_sun) and 15 ultra-luminous (ULIGS: L_IR >~ 10^12 L_sun) infrared galaxies.

Environmental Dependence of Local Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2010
We study the environmental dependence of local luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) found in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data.

The Structure of IR Luminous Galaxies at 100 Microns [PDF]

, 2000
We have observed twenty two galaxies at 100 microns with the Kuiper Airborne Observatory in order to determine the size of their FIR emitting regions. Most of these galaxies are luminous far-infrared sources, with L_FIR > 10^11 L_sun.

1.25 MM observations of luminous infrared galaxies [PDF]

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1992
Measurements at a wavelength of 1.25 mm have been obtained for 17 IRAS galaxies selected on the basis of high far-infrared luminosity. These measurements are used to estimate the lower and upper limits to the mass of cold dust in infrared galaxies. As a lower limit on dust mass, all of the galaxies can be successfully modeled without invoking any dust ...

Near-infrared and Millimeter Constraints on the Nuclear Energy Source of the Infrared Luminous Galaxy NGC 4418 [PDF]

, 2004
We present near-infrared and millimeter investigations of the nucleus of the infrared luminous galaxy NGC 4418, which previous observations suggest possesses a powerful buried AGN.

GOALS-JWST: Unveiling Dusty Compact Sources in the Merging Galaxy IIZw096

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
We have used the Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to obtain the first spatially resolved, mid-infrared images of IIZw096, a merging luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) at z = 0.036.

Dense gas in luminous infrared galaxies [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2007
Molecules that trace the high-density regions of the interstellar medium have been observed in (ultra-)luminous (far-)infrared galaxies, in order to initiate multiple-molecule multiple-transition studies to evaluate the physical and chemical environment of the nuclear medium and its response to the ongoing nuclear activity. The HCN(1-0), HNC(1-0), HCO+(
