cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesinfrared-sourceschemical-abundancesLuminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) dominate the star formation rate budget of the universe at z>~1, yet no local measurements of their heavy-element abundances exist. We measure nuclear or near-nuclear oxygen abundances in a sample of 100 star-forming LIRGs and ULIRGs using new, previously published, and archival spectroscopy of strong emission lines (including [OII] {lambda}{lambda}3726, 3729) in galaxies with redshifts <z>~0.1.2008ApJ...674..172Rhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/674/172CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toII/156 : IRAS Faint Source Catalog, |b|>10, Version 2.0 (Moshir+ 1989)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/674/172https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/674/172http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/674/172https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/674/172https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/674/172http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/674/172GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJ/674/172/sample (Sample of Luminous IR glaxies studied and their abundances)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/674/172/sample?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/674/172/sample?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/674/172/sample?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true5.392438.0929750.0055555555555555566/231 388 700 735 2691 4113 4121 4514 4606 4689 4853 4945 4957 4982 4989 5039 5116 5213 5356 5423 5464 5560 5758 5772 5816 5865 6028 6348 6401 6781 7229 7552 8562 8834 9053 9084 9133 9342 9388 9617 9736 9737 9753 9765 9770 9784 9785 9800 9830 9833 9895 9998 10144 10210 10465 10716 10893 11180 11462 11790 11862 11908 12537 13632 15323 16045 17075 17506 17606 18406 18460 18683 19628 20061 20315 22534 22721 23921 26028 26298 26324 27555 27617 27873 28188 28393 31158 36714 44671https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJ/674/172?format=asciiInfrareddefaultJ/ApJ/674/172/sampleSample of Luminous IR glaxies studied and their abundancesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
