英文摘要 | We report the detection of rest-frame 6.2 and 7.7 mu m emission features arising from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the Spitzer IRS spectrum of an infrared-luminous Lyman break galaxy at. This z = 3.01 is currently the highest redshift galaxy where these PAH emission features have been detected. The total IR luminosity inferred from the MIPS 24 mu m and radio flux density is 2 x 10(13) L-circle dot, which qualifies this object as a so-called hyperluminous infrared galaxy (HyLIRG). However, unlike local HyLIRGs, which are generally associated with QSO/AGNs and have weak or absent PAH emission features, this HyLIRG has very strong 6.2 and 7.7 mu m PAH emission. We argue that intense star formation dominates the IR emission of this source, although we cannot rule out the presence of a deeply obscured AGN. This LBG appears to be a distorted system in the HST ACS F606W and F814W images, possibly indicating that a significant merger or interaction is driving the large IR luminosity. |
