Arp 220: A Post-Starburst Galaxy With Little Star Formation Outside of It's Nuclear Disks

R. Chandar, M. Caputo, S. Linden +8

The ultra-luminous infrared galaxy Arp2 20 is a late-stage merger with several tidal structures in the outskirts and two very compact, dusty nuclei that show evidence for extreme s…
