Search for High-excitation Emission Lines from a Quasar-scale Active Nucleus in Arp 220

Search for High-excitation Emission Lines from a Quasar-scale Active Nucleus in Arp 220

The late-stage galaxy merger and prototypical ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) Arp 220 is probed using the JWST Mid Infrared Instrument medium-resolution spectrometer to search for multiple diagnostic active galactic nuclei (AGN) emission lines in the low-interstellar-opacity spectral ranges of...
