Description
From a long-term study of IR mergers/QSOs (at low redshift), we report detailed spectroscopic evidences for outflow (OF)and starburst features. We found extreme velocity OF (EVOF) in IRAS 01003-2238, 11119+3257, 13218+0552, 14394+5332, 15130-1958 and 15462-0450. The EVOF were detected mainly in objects with strong starburst plus obscured IR QSOs. Meanwhile, the low velocity OF components were detected in objects with starburst and LINER processes. HST images of IR+BAL+Fe II QSOs show in practically all of these objects `arc or shell' features probably associated to galactic-winds. In addition, results from a study of two-dimensional (2D) fibre spectroscopy of IR mergers/QSOs with galactic winds are presented. Comparing our data base for IR mergers/QSOs with two sample of nearby mergers we found in both samples a high proportion (75 per cent) of IR mergers with galactic winds.
