Spatial resolution bias in the mid-infrared Starburst/AGN classification
O. Laurent, I. F. Mirabel, V. Charmandaris +4
We present the effects of limited spatial resolution to the observed mid-infrared (MIR) spectrum of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) surrounded by a disk with massive star forming…
Mid-infrared diagnostics to distinguish AGNs from starbursts
O. Laurent, I. F. Mirabel, V. Charmandaris +5
We present new mid-infrared (MIR) diagnostics to distinguish emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) from that originating in starburst regions. Our method uses empirical spectros…
ISO observations of a sample of 60 micron peaker galaxies
R. J. Laureijs, D. Watson, L. Metcalfe +9
The sample of IRAS galaxies with spectral energy distributions that peak near 60 microns are called Sixty Micron Peakers (SMPs or 60PKs). Their generally peculiar and amorphous mor…
The Mid-Infrared Spectra of Interacting Galaxies: From ISO to SIRTF
V. Charmandaris, O. Laurent, I. F. Mirabel +2
We present mid-infrared (5--16micron) images and spectra of a sequence of interacting galaxies, observed by ISOCAM. The galaxies were selected as being at progressive stages in the…
