SUMMARY:Hot\, Dust-Obscured Galaxies - Roberto Assef (Universidad Diego Po

DESCRIPTION:The WISE mission has discovered a rare population of high-reds
 hift\, hyper-luminous infrared galaxies\, all with bolometric luminosities
  above log L_Bol/L_Sun > 13 \, and many with log L_Bol/L_Sun > 14.\nSelect
 ed by their extremely red mid-IR colors and shown to have very hot dust te
 mperatures\, these hot\, dust-obscured galaxies\, or Hot DOGs for short\, 
 are dominated by the emission of a highly\nobscured\, actively accreting s
 upermassive black hole and may probe a key stage in galaxy evolution. \nI 
 will present the latest results of our ongoing research to understand the 
 nature of these enigmatic objects with emphasis in results from our latest
  NIR spectroscopic campaigns\, as well as on recent\nresults from ALMA obs
 ervations on W2246-0526\, the most luminous Hot DOG\, that show this syste
 m is likely experiencing a multiple merger as well as significant AGN feed
 back.\n
