GOALS-JWST: Hidden Star Formation and Extended PAH Emission in the Luminous Infrared Galaxy VV 114

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) images of the luminous infrared (IR) galaxy VV 114 are presented. This redshift ∼0.020 merger has a western component (VV 114W) rich in optical star clusters and an eastern component (VV ...

Fading AGNs in Poststarburst Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The role of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in quenching galaxies and driving the evolution from star forming to quiescence remains a key question in galaxy evolution.

A Large Mass of H2 in the Brightest Cluster Galaxy in Zwicky 3146 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present the Spitzer/IRS mid-infrared spectrum of the infrared-luminous (L_{IR}=4e11 L_sun) brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) in the X-ray-luminous cluster Z3146 (z=0.29).

Mid-Infrared Spectral Diagnostics of Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2010
We present a statistical analysis of 248 luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) which comprise the Great Observatories All‐sky LIRG Survey (GOALS) observed with the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on‐board Spitzer in the rest‐frame wavelength range between 5 and 38 μm.

Spatially Resolved [FeII] 1.64 \mu m Emission in NGC 5135. Clues for Understanding the Origin of the Hard X-rays in Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Spatially resolved near-IR and X-ray imaging of the central region of the Luminous Infrared Galaxy NGC 5135 is presented. The kinematical signatures of strong outflows are detected in the [FeII]1.64 \mu m emission line in a compact region at 0.9 kpc from

Star-formation histories of local luminous infrared galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2015
We present the analysis of the integrated spectral energy distribution (SED) from the ultraviolet (UV) to the far-infrared and H$ $ of a sample of 29 local systems and individual galaxies with infrared (IR) luminosities between 10^11 Lsun and 10^11.8 Lsun.

GOALS-JWST: Resolving the Circumnuclear Gas Dynamics in NGC 7469 in the Mid-infrared

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
The nearby, luminous infrared galaxy NGC 7469 hosts a Seyfert nucleus with a circumnuclear star-forming ring and is thus the ideal local laboratory for investigating the starburst–AGN (active galactic nucleus) connection in detail.

Two Candidates for Dual AGN in Dwarf-dwarf Galaxy Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Dual active galactic nuclei (DAGN) are important for understanding galaxy-merger-triggered fueling of black holes and the hierarchical growth of structures.
