We present $\sim$0."3 (114 pc) resolution maps of [CI] $^{3}P_{1}$-$^{3}P_{0}$ (hereafter [CI] (1-0)) and $^{12}$CO (1-0) obtained toward Arp 220 with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The overall distribution of the [CI]…

We resolve the extended X-ray emission from the prototypical ultraluminous infrared galaxy Arp 220. Extended, faint edge-brightened, soft X-ray lobes outside the optical galaxy are observed to a distance of 10 to 15 kpc on each side of the…

Images of Arp 220 from 3.45 to 24.5 $\mu$m with 0.5'' resolution are presented which clearly separate the nucleus into at least two components. The western component is about three times more luminous than the eastern component, but the…

We present new high resolution $^{12}$CO $J$=1-0, $J$=2-1, and $^{13}$CO $J$=1-0 maps of the early stage merger Arp 240 (NGC5257/8) obtained with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Simulations in the literature suggest…

We observe Arp 220, the nearest Ultra-Luminous Infrared Galaxy (ULIRG), over 4 GHz in the K and Ka bands. We provide constraints for the kinematics,morphology, and identify molecular species on scales resolving both nuclei (0.6" or 230 pc).…

We report the detection of the CO J=1-0 emission line in [H89]1821+643, one of the most optically luminous QSOs in the local Universe and a template ULIRG-to-QSO transition object, located in a rich cool-core cluster at z=0.297. The CO…

We report new K-band, radio continuum, and CO (1-0) imaging observations and 850 micron photometric observations of PDS 456, the most luminous QSO in the local universe (z<0.3). The 0.6'' resolution K-band image obtained using the Keck…

We present first results from our Very Large Telescope large program to study the dynamical evolution of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies (ULIRGs), which are the products of mergers of gas-rich galaxies. The full data set consists of high…

We present HST WFPC2 V band imaging for 23 Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies taken from the QDOT redshift survey. The fraction of sources observed to be interacting is 87%. Most of the merging systems show a number of compact `knots', whose…

We report on the results of observations in the CO(1-0) transition of a complete sample of Southern, intermediate redshift (z = 0.2 - 0.5) Ultra-Luminous Infra-Red Galaxies using the Mopra 22m telescope. The eleven ULIRGs with L_FIR >…

We report the detection of CO(2-1) emission from the z=1.2 ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) GOODS J123634.53+621241.3 (also known as the sub-millimeter galaxy GN26). These observations represent the first discovery of high-redshift CO…

We present Herschel SPIRE-FTS observations of Arp~220, a nearby ULIRG. The FTS continuously covers 190 -- 670 microns, providing a good measurement of the continuum and detection of several molecular and atomic species. We detect luminous…

In the complete sample of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) compiled by Kim (1995) about 5% consists of widely separated galaxies which are presumably in the early phase of interaction. This fact is contrary to the conventional view…

Integral field optical spectroscopy with the INTEGRAL system has been used to investigate for the first time the two-dimensional kinematic and ionization properties of the extended, warm ionized gas in Arp 220 over an area of 28 kpc by 15…

The ultraluminous infrared galaxy Arp 220 has been observed at 0.5" resolution in CO(2-1) and 1 mm continuum using the newly expanded Owens Valley Millimeter Array. The CO and continuum peaks at the double nuclei and the surrounding…

We present high resolution (0."4) observations of HNC J=3-2 with the SubMillimeter Array (SMA). We find luminous HNC 3-2 line emission in the western part of Arp220, centered on the western nucleus, while the eastern side of the merger…

We report the results from a deep HST NICMOS H-band imaging survey of a carefully selected sample of 33 luminous, late-stage galactic mergers at z < 0.3. Signs of a recent galactic interaction are seen in all of the objects in the HST…

We present the results of near- to mid-infrared (NIR to MIR) imaging and NIR spectroscopic observations of two galaxy mergers, NGC 2782 (Arp 215) and NGC 7727 (Arp 222), with the Infrared Camera on board AKARI. NGC 2782 shows extended MIR…

We present new interferometric HI and CO (1-0) observations of the luminous infrared source, Arp 256. Arp 256 consists of two spiral galaxies in an early stage of merging, with a projected nuclear separation of 29 kpc (54") and an infrared…

(abridged) We present ATCA and GBT observations of ammonia (NH3) toward the ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) merger Arp220. We detect the NH3 (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), and (6,6) inversion lines in absorption against the…
