摘要
We present HST/NICMOS observations of a sample of LIRGs. We show that active star formation appears to be occurring not only in the bright nuclei of these galaxies, but also in luminous super-star clusters and giant H (II) regions with ages of up to 20 - 40 Myr. This population of bright clusters and H (II) regions is unprecedented in normal galaxies and emphasizes the effects of the extreme star formation in LIRGs.
