Subaru Infrared Adaptive Optics-assisted High-spatial-resolution Imaging Search for Luminous Dual Active Galactic Nuclei in Nearby Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
We present infrared K'- (2.1 micron) and L'-band (3.8 micron) high-spatial-resolution ( 2 micron are used that should be sensitive to buried AGNs due to small dust extinction effects.

A Near-infrared-faint, Far-infrared-luminous Dusty Galaxy at z ∼ 5 in COSMOS-Web
A growing number of far-infrared (FIR) bright sources completely invisible in deep extragalactic optical surveys hint at an elusive population of z > 4 dusty, star-forming galaxies.

Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
Ever since their discovery in the 1970's, UltraLuminous InfraRed Galaxies (ULIRGs; classically Lir>10^12Lsun) have fascinated astronomers with their immense luminosities, and frustrated them due to their singularly opaque nature, almost in equal measure.

Main Sequence to Starburst Transitioning Galaxies: Gamma-Ray Burst Hosts at z ∼ 2
Star-forming galaxies populate a main sequence (MS), a well-defined relation between stellar mass ( M _* ) and star formation rate (SFR). Starburst (SB) galaxies lie significantly above the relation, whereas quenched galaxies lie below the sequence.

From SN 2010da to NGC 300 ULX-1: Ten Years of Observations of an Unusual High Mass X-Ray Binary in NGC 300 [PDF]
In May 2010, an intermediate luminosity optical transient was discovered in the nearby galaxy NGC 300 by a South African amateur astronomer. In the decade since its discovery, multi-wavelength observations of the misnamed “SN 2010da” have continually ...

CON-quest. II. Spatially and spectrally resolved HCN/HCO+ line ratios in local luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies [PDF]
Nuclear regions of ultraluminous and luminous infrared galaxies (U/LIRGs) are powered by starbursts and/or active galactic nuclei (AGNs). These regions are often obscured by extremely high columns of gas and dust.

The Kennicutt–Schmidt Law and Gas Scale Height in Luminous and Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]
A new analysis of high-resolution data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array for five luminous or ultraluminous infrared galaxies gives a slope for the Kennicutt–Schmidt (KS) relation equal to for gas surface densities Σmol > 103 M⊙ pc−2 ...

A Diverse Population of z ∼ 2 ULIRGs Revealed by JWST Imaging
Four ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) observed with JWST/NIRcam in the Cosmos Evolution Early Release Science program offer an unbiased preview of the z ∼ 2 ULIRG population.

The QSO — Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies Connection [PDF]
For the past several years, our group has pursued a vigorous ground-based program aimed at understanding the nature of ultraluminous infrared galaxies. We recently published the results from a optical/near-infrared spectroscopic survey of a large statistically complete sample of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (the "IRAS 1-Jy sample").
