Talk Title: Spitzer Observations of Massive Black Holes in Infrared Galaxies
Abstract: The Spitzer Space Telescope, NASA's 4th Great Observatory, was launched on 25 August 2003. With its three scientific instruments on board it covers the wavelength range from 3 to 160 microns and is ideally suited to peek into the dust-enshrouded environments of active galactic nuclei. I will give a brief introduction in the capabilities of this new observatory, and then present some recent results -- from local AGN to ultra-luminous galaxies to Cen-A and to quasars at high redshift.
