Date of Publication (YYYY-MM-DD): 2017 Title of Journal: The Astrophysical Journal Volume: 843 Issue / Number: 2 Start Page: id. 117 ( 27 pp) Audience: Not Specified Abstract / Description: We present Very Large Array observations of the 33 GHz radio continuum emission from 22 local ultraluminous and luminous infrared (IR) galaxies (U/LIRGs). These observations have spatial (angular) resolutions of 30–720 pc (0.″07–0.″67) in a part of the spectrum that is likely to be optically thin. This allows us to estimate the size of the energetically dominant regions. We find half-light radii from 30 pc to 1.7 kpc. The 33 GHz flux density correlates well with the Free Keywords: galaxies: active; galaxies: interactions; galaxies: starburst; radio continuum: galaxies External Publication Status: published Document Type: Article Communicated by: N.
