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

Quantification of the Age Dependence of Mid-infrared Star Formation Rate Indicators
We combine James Webb Space Telescope images of the nearby galaxy NGC 5194 in the hydrogen recombination line Pa α (1.8756 μ m) from the Cycle 1 program JWST-FEAST with 21 μ m dust continuum images from the Cycle 2 Treasury program JWGT to quantify the ...

GOALS-JWST: Gas Dynamics and Excitation in NGC 7469 Revealed by NIRSpec
We present new JWST NIRSpec integral field spectroscopy (IFS) data for the luminous infrared galaxy NGC 7469, a nearby (70.6 Mpc) active galaxy with a Seyfert 1.5 nucleus that drives a highly ionized gas outflow and a prominent nuclear star-forming ring.

Adaptive optics imaging and optical spectroscopy of a multiple merger in a luminous infrared galaxy [PDF]
We present near-infrared (NIR) adaptive optics imaging obtained with VLT/NACO and optical spectroscopy from the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) of a luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) IRAS 19115-2124.

Characterising Nearby Luminous Infrared Galaxies
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 ...
