IRAS 14394+5332 is an ultraluminous infrared galaxy and a galaxy merger located in the constellation of Boötes. It has a redshift of (z) 0.105, estimating the distance to be 1.4 billion light-years from Earth.[1] The galaxy was first discovered by astronomers in 1996 who found it having a total infrared luminosity of 12.04 Lʘ.[2]

Description

IRAS 14394+5332 is described as a triple interacting galaxy system[3] consisting of a spiral galaxy located in western direction and a final-stage double nucleus galaxy merger located in the eastern direction with two closely spaced nuclei, only separating by 2.6 kiloparsecs from each other.[4][5][6][7] A long tidal tail made up diffused radio emission is seen extending by 35 kiloparsecs between the galaxies.[8][9]

The nucleus on the eastern side of the double nucleus galaxy in the IRAS 14394+5332 system, is found to be active. It is described as a Seyfert type 2 galaxy based on optical wavelength observations and is bright at near-infrared wavelengths compared to the faint western nucleus, with it displaying emission lines in its spectrum.[10][8] Furthermore, the morphology of the double nucleus galaxy is complex according to Hubble Space Telescope optical imaging, who described it having two condensation components that seems to be divided by a dust lane.[4] HST imaging also found the structure is irregular with the higher surface brightness feature centering more on the northern condensation component connected with the eastern nucleus.[4]

Observations found the eastern nucleus of the galaxy has detections of nuclear outflows. Based on results, it shows a doubly ionized oxygen emission-line kinematic feature best described by three narrow components; mainly a redmost component and two other components described having blueshift measurements of -700 and -1360 kilometers per second. Data also showed these profiles of doubly ionized oxygen emission lines are noticed as different when compared to the other emission lines.[11]

There are also evidence of ionized outflows in the eastern nucleus of the galaxy within a 0.75 ± 0.12 kiloparsec region, with a mass outflow rate of 3.4+13.8-3.0 Mʘ per year and a kinetic power measuring 0.66+3.12-0.60 percent in energy levels.[9] A total star formation rate of 2.26 ± 0.03 Mʘ per year and a stellar mass of 10.50 ± 0.06 Mʘ has been estimated for the system.[3]
