局部亮和超亮红外星系中的AGN和恒星形成活动

AGN and star formation activity in local luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies

Almudena Alonso-Herrero

摘要:

亮红外星系(LIRGs,L_IR=10^11-10^12Lsun)和超亮红外星系(ULIRGs,L_IR>10^12Lsun)发射的大量红外辐射是由强烈的恒星形成(SF)活动和/或活动星系核(AGN)加热的尘埃产生的。(U)LIRGs中高的恒星形成率和活动星系核的高发生率使其成为研究局部宇宙中SF和活动星系核相互作用的理想候选者。在本文中,我回顾了最近的结果的物理范围的SF活动,活动星系核的检测率(包括掩埋活动星系核),活动星系核的辐射热贡献的光度系统,以及本地LIRG和ULIRGs的演变。这篇评论的主要重点是最近的IR观测结果。

英文摘要:

The enormous amounts of infrared (IR) radiation emitted by luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs, L_IR=10^11-10^12Lsun) and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs, L_IR>10^12Lsun) are produced by dust heated by intense star formation (SF) activity and/or an active galactic nucleus (AGN). The elevated star formation rates and high AGN incidence in (U)LIRGs make them ideal candidates to study the interplay between SF and AGN activity in the local universe. In this paper I review recent results on the physical extent of the SF activity, the AGN detection rate (including buried AGN), the AGN bolometric contribution to the luminosity of the systems, as well as the evolution of local LIRGs and ULIRGs. The main emphasis of this review is on recent results from IR observations.
