Energetic nuclear transients in luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies [PDF]
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 Survey Explorer (WISE) satellite and its NEOWISE survey to detect and characterise luminous and smoothly ...

Hard X-Ray Emission of the Luminous Infrared Galaxy NGC 6240 as Observed by Nustar [PDF]
We present a broadband (~0.3−70 keV) spectral and temporal analysis of NuSTAR observations of the luminous infrared galaxy NGC 6240 combined with archival Chandra, XMM-Newton, and BeppoSAX data.

Spectroscopy of Luminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
A review of recent optical and infrared spectroscopic results on luminous infrared galaxies is presented. The main emphasis is on the ultraluminous objects. Possible correlations with infrared luminosity are identified. These results are used to constrain the nature of the dominant energy source in luminous infrared galaxies, and to test whether these ...

The star formation history of luminous infrared galaxies [PDF]
We constrain the past star formation histories of a sample of 25 distant (z~0.7) luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) detected with the mid infrared cameras ISOCAM and MIPS onboard the ISO and Spitzer satellites. We use high resolution VLT-FORS2 spectroscopy in addition to a comprehensive library of 200,000 model optical spectra to derive Bayesian ...

Supernova 2013fc in a circumnuclear ring of a luminous infrared galaxy: The big brother of SN 1998S [PDF]
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of SN 2013fc, a bright type II supernova (SN) in a circumnuclear star-forming ring in the luminous infrared galaxy ESO 154-G010, observed as part of the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient ...

Evolution of the ISM in luminous infrared galaxies [PDF]
Molecules that trace the high-density regions of the interstellar medium may be used to evaluate the changing physical and chemical environment during the ongoing nuclear activity in (Ultra-)Luminous Infrared Galaxies. The changing ratios of the HCN(1-0), HNC(1-0), HCO+(1-0), CN(1-0) and CN(2-1), and CS(3-2) transitions were compared with the HCN(1-0 ...

Spatially resolved kinematics, galactic wind, and quenching of star formation in the luminous infrared galaxy IRAS F11506-3851 [PDF]
We present a multi-wavelength integral field spectroscopic (IFS) study of the low-z luminous infrared galaxy IRAS F11506-3851 (ESO 320-G030) on the basis of the moderate spectral resolution observations (R 3400 4000) taken with the VIMOS and SINFONI ...
