Title: UNDERSTANDING THE AGN/STARBURST CONNECTION AT HIGH LUMINOSITIES
Observer: Ueno
Subject Category: Active Galaxies and Quasars

ABSTRACT
The overall aim of this proposal is to understand the nature of ultraluminous IRAS galaxies (ULIRGs) with double nuclei. The presence of two nuclei, one of which is already known to be an AGN, seems to be a common property of ULIRGs. Existing ASCA spectra reveal both hard and soft components, however the spatial resolution of AXAF is essential if we are to determine the relative X-ray fractions emitted by each nucleus. The spectral information will be used to determine the origin of the hard and soft components ie. whether they are AGN or starburst related. For the first time we shall unambiguously separate the AGN and starburst X-ray activity in these systems of high bolometric luminosity.
