Abstract
- We use resolution‐enhanced IRASimages (HiRes) to study the distribution of far‐infrared (FIR) emission in 20 edge‐on, disc galaxies. Half of our sample are selected as infrared‐bright galaxies which emit most of their energy at wavelengths longer than a few μm. The remaining 10 objects are ‘normal’ (quiescent) galaxies.
