Infrared Counterparts to Chandra X-Ray Sources in the Antennae
D. M. Clark, S. S. Eikenberry, B. R. Brandl +7
We use deep J and Ks images of the Antennae (NGC 4038/9) obtained with WIRC on the Palomar 200-inch telescope, together with the Chandra X-ray source list of Zezas et al. (2002a),…
Hidden Trigger for the Giant Starburst Arc in M 83?
Ruben J. Diaz, Horacio Dottori, Maria P. Aguero +3
The huge star formation events that occur at some galactic centers do not provide enough clues as to their origin, since the morphological signatures of the triggering mechanism ar…
The Spitzer c2d Survey of Nearby Dense Cores: IV. Revealing the Embedded Cluster in B59
Timothy Y. Brooke, Tracy L. Huard, Tyler L. Bourke +22
Infrared images of the dark cloud core B59 were obtained with the Spitzer Space Telescope as part of the "Cores to Disks" Legacy Science project. Photometry from 3.6-70 microns ind…
Mid-Infrared T-ReCS Spectroscopy of Local LIRGs
T. Diaz-Santos, A. Alonso-Herrero, L. Colina +3
We present T-ReCS high spatial resolution N-band (8-13 micron) spectroscopy of the central regions (a few kpc) of 3 local LIRGs. The nuclear spectra show deep 9.7 micron silicate a…
New Results from Observations of Massive Star Formation in the Mid-Infrared with Large Aperture Telescopes
James M. De Buizer
Thanks to the high spatial resolution afforded by 8-10m class telescopes, we are beginning to learn that some sources are extended in their mid-infrared emission because of dusty o…
The Extinction and Distance of Maffei 2 and a New View of the IC 342/Maffei Group
Robin L. Fingerhut, Henry Lee, Marshall L. McCall +1
We have obtained spectra of HII regions in the heavily obscured spiral galaxy Maffei 2. The observations have allowed for a determination of the Galactic extinction of this galaxy…
