Three epochs of EVN observations towards IRAS 23365+3604
Abstract
The European VLBI Network (EVN) provides us with the necessary sensitivity and angular resolution to study the nuclear and circumnuclear regions in Luminous and Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies. The high Star Formation Rates (SFR) inferred for these galaxies implies both the presence of a high number of massive stars and a dense surrounding medium. Therefore, bright radio SNe are expected to occur. With the aim of estimating the SFR in ULIRGs by means of Core Collapse supernova (CCSN) detections, we started an observing campaign with the EVN on a small sample of the brightest and farthest ULIRGs in the local Universe. We present here our results from three epochs of quasi-simultaneous observations with the EVN at 6 and 18 cm towards one of the objects in our sample: IRAS 23365+3604.
