Replication data for: Modeling Mid-Infrared Diagnostics of Obscured Quasars and Starbursts
收藏资源简介:
This study contains simulated spectral energy distributions and derived quantities, such as mid-infrared diagnostics and star formation rates and SMBH accretion rates, from a sample of high-resolution hydrodynamical galaxy merger simulations presented by Snyder et al. 2013, ApJ, 768, 168 ; http://arxiv.org/abs/1210.6347. This paper sought to validate commonly used mid-infrared diagnostics of starburst versus AGN activity. This paper also derives and studies an idealized combination of mid-infrared diagnostics, accessible to the James Webb Space Telescope, that may estimate the SMBH luminosity as robustly as hard X-ray luminosity. The data are presented in a multi-unit FITS-format file, with a full description given in the README.txt file included with the study. Please contact Greg Snyder with questions or if you notice a problem.
