Calibrating Mid-Infrared Emission Features As Diagnostics of Star Formation in Infrared-Luminous Galaxies via Radiative Transfer Modeling
L. Robinson, D. Farrah, A. Efstathiou +13
Luminous infrared galaxies are key sites of obscured stellar mass assembly at z > 0.5. Their star formation rates (SFRs) are often estimated using the luminosities of the 6.2 micro…

Molecular Gas Heating, Star Formation Rate Relations, and AGN Feedback in Infrared-luminous Galaxy Mergers
Duncan Farrah, Andreas Efstathiou, Jose Afonso +13
We examine the origin of molecular gas heating in a sample of 42 infrared-luminous galaxies at by combining two sets of archival data. First, integrated CO line luminositie…
