AKARI Detections of Hot Dust in Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
We present a new sample of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) identified using the catalog of the AKARI Mid-infrared(MIR) All-Sky Survey. Our MIR search has an advantage in detecting AGNs that are obscured at optical wavelengths due to extinction.

Adaptive Optics Discovery of Supernova 2004ip in the Nuclear Regions of the Luminous Infrared Galaxy IRAS 18293-3413 [PDF]
We report a supernova discovery in Ks-band images from the NAOS CONICA adaptive optics (AO) system on the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT). The images were obtained as part of a near-infrared search for highly-obscured supernovae in the nuclear regions of ...

Spectroscopic Confirmation of a z=2.79 Multiply Imaged Luminous Infrared Galaxy Behind the Bullet Cluster [PDF]
We report spectroscopic confirmation and high-resolution infrared imaging of a z=2.79 triply-imaged galaxy behind the Bullet Cluster. This source, a Spitzer-selected luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG), is confirmed via polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH ...

The environments of luminous radio-WISE selected infrared galaxies [PDF]
We have observed the environments of a population of 33 heavily dust obscured, ultra-luminous, high-redshift galaxies, selected using WISE and NVSS at $z>$1.3 with the Infra-Red Array Camera on the $Spitzer$ Space Telescope over $\rm5.12\,'\times5.12\,'$ fields. Colour selections are used to quantify any potential overdensities of companion galaxies

Optical Imaging of Very Luminous Infrared Galaxy Systems: Photometric Properties and Late Evolution [PDF]
A sample of 19 low-redshift (0.03 < z < 0.07), very luminous infrared galaxy [VLIRG: 1011 L⊙ < L(8–1000 μm) < 1012 L⊙] systems (30 galaxies) has been imaged in B, V, and I using ALFOSC with the Nordic Optical Telescope.

Buried AGNs and Starbursts in Luminous and Ultra-Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
AbstractWe present the first results of a Spitzer Space Telescope survey of 28 LIRGs and ULIRGs. We used infrared emission lines to separeate AGN and starburst powered systems. We find strong evidence that the incidence of nuclear activity increases with infrared luminosity.

A Pair of Leading Spiral Arms in a Luminous Infrared Galaxy? [PDF]
Leading spiral arms are a rare phenomenon. We present here one of the very few convincing candidates of spiral arms opening counter-intuitively in the same direction as the galaxy disk is rotating. This detection in a luminous IR galaxy (LIRG) IRAS 18293-3134 is based on near infrared (NIR) adaptive optics imaging with the Very Large Telescope and long-

AT 2017gbl: a dust obscured TDE candidate in a luminous infrared galaxy [PDF]
We present the discovery with Keck of the extremely infrared (IR) luminous transient AT 2017gbl, coincident with the Northern nucleus of the luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) IRAS 23436+5257.
