Figure 2. The FIR SEDs from the galaxies in our sample. The color corrected flux densities at 60, 100 and 170 µm are plotted together with their associated error bars. One galaxy, VCC 1110 has additional measurements at 70 and 120 µm. The two modified black-body functions which best fitted the data points are plotted with dashed-lines. The temperature of the warm component is constrained to be 47 K. The fitted temperature of the cold component is marked near each fit. The sum of the two fitting functions is plotted as the solid line. Some galaxies don't show evidence for two dust components and their SEDs are fitted with single component modified black-body functions, plotted as solid lines.
