Fisher, University of Texas at Austin abstract The Dark Halo in NGC 821 Amy D. Forestell, University of Texas at Austin abstract Mid-IR Spectroscopy of Red 2MASS AGN Lei Hao, Cornell University abstract We present the mid-IR spectra of a sample of PG quasars and 2MASS selected near-IR red AGNs. Their silicate features and continuum slope are compared in detail. We explore the correlations between their silicate features and the broadband colors and compare these properties with a large sample of AGNs Starbursts and ULIRGs. .
