Thermal InfraRed surveys from Antarctica for extragalactic astronomy

International audience The outstanding atmospheric conditions of the Dome C give a unique opportunity to survey deeply large areas of the sky in the thermal infrared reaching interesting sensitivity limits for extragalactic astronomy. Our extragalactic database HyperLeda will benefit from new infrar...

Description
Summary:International audience The outstanding atmospheric conditions of the Dome C give a unique opportunity to survey deeply large areas of the sky in the thermal infrared reaching interesting sensitivity limits for extragalactic astronomy. Our extragalactic database HyperLeda will benefit from new infrared data, especially for characterizing nuclear and starburst activity of AGNs and ULIRGs.
