Abstract

High star-formation rate and emission from the active galactic nucleus can significantly transform the interstellar medium. In ultra-luminous infrared galaxies, in which the star-formation rate reaches thousands of solar masses per year, the gas and dust are considerably affected by the ionizing radiation, cosmic rays and shock waves, that can be about a factor of 100–1000 larger than typical values in quiet star-forming galaxies. In these conditions, the emissivity of the gas and dust changes: in dense gas, high ionic and molecular transitions become excited, while dust grains are heated to high temperatures. In this paper, we analyze the possibilities for studying the interstellar medium in extreme conditions of ultra-luminous infrared galaxies at redshifts of ~0–3, utilizing the atomic and molecular lines, and dust continuum in far infrared range of 100–500 μm. We discuss the prospect of observations using the instruments of the Millimetron Space Observatory.
