Shock Excited Molecules in NGC 1266: ULIRG conditions at the center of a Bulge Dominated Galaxy

E. W. Pellegrini, J. D. Smith, M. G. Wolfire +28

We investigate the far infrared spectrum of NGC 1266, a S0 galaxy that contains a massive reservoir of highly excited molecular gas. Using the SPIRE-FTS, we detect the CO la…

Investigating the presence of 500 um submillimeter excess emission in local star forming galaxies

Allison Kirkpatrick, Daniela Calzetti, Maud Galametz +10

Submillimeter excess emission has been reported at 500 microns in a handful of local galaxies, and previous studies suggest that it could be correlated with metal abundance. We inv…

The Nature of the Second Parameter in the IRX-beta Relation for Local Galaxies

Kathryn Grasha, Daniela Calzetti, Jennifer E. Andrews +2

We present an analysis of 98 galaxies of low-dust content, selected from the Spitzer Local Volume Legacy survey, aimed at examining the relation between the ultraviolet (UV) color,…

Measuring Galaxy Star Formation Rates From Integrated Photometry: Insights from Color-Magnitude Diagrams of Resolved Stars

Benjamin D. Johnson, Daniel R. Weisz, Julianne J. Dalcanton +8

We use empirical star formation histories (SFHs), measured from HST-based resolved star color-magnitude diagrams, as input into population synthesis codes to model the broadband sp…

Mid-infrared Spectral Properties of Post-Starburst Quasars

Peng Wei, Zhaohui Shang, Michael S. Brotherton +5

We present Spitzer InfraRed Spectrograph (IRS) low-resolution spectra of 16 spectroscopically selected post-starburst quasars (PSQs) at z ~ 0.3. The optical spectra of these broad-…

Mapping dust through emission and absorption in nearby galaxies

K. Kreckel, B. Groves, E. Schinnerer +13

Dust has long been identified as a barrier to measuring inherent galaxy properties. However, the link between dust and attenuation is not straightforward and depends on both the am…
