摘要
High resolution radio observations provide a unique tool for investigation ofultraluminous infrared galaxies, due to the combination of high angularresolution and source transparency available at centimeter wavelengths. Thetypical angular size of the IR emitting region in the most luminous systems isof order 0.1 arcsec, while dust absorption appears to obscure this region fromdirect view at wavelengths shorter than ∼ 100 microns. Radio observationswith VLBI and MERLIN are revealing compact radio structures indicative of bothstarburst and AGN activity in these systems. Additional observations arerequired to clarify relationships between radio structures and the energygeneration mechanisms, and to realize the full potential of radio interferometryfor ULIRG studies.
