Observations of hyperluminous infrared galaxies with the Infrared Space Observatory: Implications for the origin of their extreme luminosities

We present 7-180 μm photometry of a sample of hyperluminous infrared galaxies (HyLIGs) obtained with the photometer and camera mounted on the Infrared Space Observatory. We have used radiative transfer models of obscured starbursts and dusty torii to model their spectral energy distributions (SEDs)....
