Host dynamics and origin of Palomar-Green QSOs
K. M. Dasyra, L. J. Tacconi, R. I. Davies +7
We present host-galaxy velocity dispersions of 12 local (mainly Palomar-Green) quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) measured directly from the stellar CO absorption features in the H band.…
Galaxy morphology and evolution from SWAN Adaptive Optics imaging
G. Cresci, R. I. Davies, A. J. Baker +4
We present the results from adaptive optics (AO) assisted imaging in the Ks band of an area of 15 arcmin^2 for SWAN (Survey of a Wide Area with NACO). We derive the high resolution…
Dynamical properties of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies. II. Traces of dynamical evolution and end products of local ultraluminous mergers
K. M. Dasyra, L. J. Tacconi, R. I. Davies +8
We present results from our Very Large Telescope large program to study the dynamical evolution of local Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs) and QSOs. This paper is the second…
Spitzer Quasar and ULIRG evolution study (QUEST): I. The origin of the far infrared continuum of QSOs
M. Schweitzer, D. Lutz, E. Sturm +13
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…
