Compendium of ISO far-IR extragalactic data

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Far-infrared line and continuum fluxes are presented for a sample of 227 galaxies observed with the Long Wavelength Spectrometer on the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO, Kessler et al., 1996A&A...315L..27K).

Description

The galaxy sample includes normal star-forming systems, starbursts, and active galactic nuclei covering a wide range of colors and morphologies. The data set spans some 1300 line fluxes, 600 line upper limits, and 800 continuum fluxes.

Several fine-structure emission lines are detected that arise in either photodissociation or HII regions: [OIII] 52um, [NIII] 57um, [OI] 63um, [OIII] 88um, [NII] 122um, [OI] 145um, and [CII] 158um. Molecular lines such as OH at 53, 79, 84, 119, and 163um, and H_2_O at 58, 66, 75, 101, and 108um are also detected in some galaxies. In addition to those lines emitted by the target galaxies, serendipitous detections of Milky Way [CII] 158um and an unidentified line near 74um in NGC 1068 are also reported.

Finally, continuum fluxes at 52, 57, 63, 88, 122, 145, 158, and 170um are derived for a subset of galaxies in which the far-infrared emission is contained within the ~75" ISO LWS beam. The statistics of this large database of continuum and line fluxes, including trends in line ratios with the far-infrared color and infrared-to-optical ratio, are explored.
