The Oxygen Abundances of Luminous and Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2008
Luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) dominate the star formation rate budget of the universe at z > 1, yet no local measurements of their heavy element abundances exist. We measure nuclear or near-nuclear oxygen abundances in a sample of 100 star-forming LIRGs and ULIRGs using new, previously published, and archival ...

Spitzer Quasar and ULIRG evolution study (QUEST): I. The origin of the far infrared continuum of QSOs [PDF]

, 2006
This paper addresses the origin of the far-infrared (FIR) continuum of QSOs, based on the Quasar and ULIRG Evolution Study (QUEST) of nearby QSOs and ULIRGs using observations with the Spitzer Space Telescope. For 27 Palomar-Green QSOs at z

Nature of Widely Separated Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal, 2001
In the complete sample of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) compiled by Kim (1995) about 5% consists of widely separated galaxies which are presumably in the early phase of interaction. This fact is contrary to the conventional view that ULIRGs are in the final stages of the merger of two gas-rich disk galaxies.

PASSAGES: The Wide-ranging, Extreme Intrinsic Properties of Planck-selected, Lensed Dusty Star-forming Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
The PASSAGES (Planck All-Sky Survey to Analyze Gravitationally-lensed Extreme Starbursts) collaboration has recently defined a sample of 30 gravitationally lensed dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs). These rare, submillimeter-selected objects enable high-

ASTRO-F - The next generation of mid-infrared surveys

, 2001
We present basic observational strategies for ASTRO-F (also known as the Imaging Infra Red Surveyor (IRIS)) to be launched in 2004 by the Japanese Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS). We examine 2 survey scenarios, a deep ~1sq.deg. survey

Characterizing the Molecular Gas in Infrared Bright Galaxies with CARMA

The Astrophysical Journal
We present the CO(1–0) maps of 28 infrared-bright galaxies from the Great Observatories All-Sky Luminous Infrared Galaxy Survey (GOALS) taken with the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter Astronomy (CARMA).

Extended Star Formation in Luminous Infrared Galaxies at z ∼ 1 in the SMILES Field

The Astrophysical Journal
Luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) in the local Universe are highly centrally concentrated in the mid-infrared (MIR) and substantially more likely than non-(U)LIRGs to be involved in mergers.

Complex Radio Spectral Energy Distributions in Luminous and Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies [PDF]

, 2011
We use the Expanded Very Large Array to image radio continuum emission from local luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) in 1 GHz windows centered at 4.7, 7.2, 29, and 36 GHz. This allows us to probe the integrated radio spectral

Direct Evidence for Active Galactic Nuclei Feedback from Fast Molecular Outflows in Reionization-era Quasars

The Astrophysical Journal
Galactic outflows driven by rapidly accreting quasars at high redshift are widely expected to play a key role in the short- and long-term future evolution of their host galaxies.
