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…
Medium-distant clusters of galaxies seen by ISO
L. Lemonon, M. Pierre, C. J. Cesarsky +2
We present a comprehensive study of ISO cluster galaxies in connection with other wavelengths. First results show that infrared galaxies detected by ISOCAM concentrate on the edge…
A barred spiral at the centre of the giant elliptical radio galaxy Centaurus A
I. F. Mirabel, O. Laurent, D. B. Sanders +7
We report observations at mid-infrared and sub-millimeter wavelengths of Centaurus A (CenA, NGC 5128), the giant elliptical galaxy that harbors the closest radio loud Active Galact…
Dust in the Wheel: The Cartwheel Galaxy in the Mid-IR
V. Charmandaris, O. Laurent, I. F. Mirabel +5
We present mid-infrared images at and of ``The Cartwheel'' (AM~0035-33), the prototypical collisional ring galaxy. The observations, taken with ISOCAM, reveal the…
Deep ISOCAM view of the core of the lensing cluster A2390
L. Lemonon, M. Pierre, C. J. Cesarsky +4
We have imaged the inner square arcminute of the well known lensing and cooling flow cluster A2390 (z = 0.23) down to a sensitivity of 65 and 130 microJy at 6.75 and 15 micronmetre…
ISO Mid-Infrared Observations of Abell 370
L. Metcalfe, B. Altieri, H. Aussel +11
We report on the mid-IR imaging at 7 and 10 microns of the galaxy cluster Abell 370, obtained with the ISOCAM instrument onboard ESA's Infrared Space Observatory (ISO), as part of…
