Local luminous infrared galaxies. ii. active galactic nucleus activity from spitzer/infrared spectrograph spectra*

TL;DR: In this article, the authors decompose the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) low-resolution 5 − 38µm spectra of the LIRGs into AGN and starburst components using clumpy torus models and star-forming galaxy templates, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dusty waves on a starry sea : The mid-infrared view of M31

TL;DR: In this paper, mid-infrared observations of the Andromeda galaxy, M31, obtained with the Infrared Array Camera on board the Spitzer Space Telescope are presented, which cover areas of approximately 37 × 16 and include the satellite galaxies M32 and NGC 205.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gravity Indicators in the Near-Infrared Spectra of Brown Dwarfs

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral properties of substellar objects were investigated in terms of the sensitivity to temperature and gravity of the strong absorption features in the J-and K-band spectra of the objects, and it was shown that low-resolution spectra for M4-M9 stars and young brown dwarfs at R ~ 350 and signal-to-noise ratios greater than 70 can determine the spectral type to a precision of ± 1 subtype using the H2O and CO bands and can measure the surface gravity to ± 0.5 dex using the atomic lines
