Abstract:
We present a comprehensive comparative high resolution mid-IR
spectroscopic and X-ray imaging investigation of LINERs using
archival observations from the ISO-SWS and the Chandra Advanced CCD
Imaging Spectrometer. Although the sample is heterogeneous and
incomplete, this is the first comprehensive study of the mid-infrared
fine structure line emission of LINERs.

Note (2): Far-infrared luminosity corresponds to the 40-500um wavelength
interval and were calculated using the IRAS 60 and 100um fluxes
according to the prescription:
LFIR=1.26*10-14(2.58f60+f100) in W/m2
