Abstract
Active galaxies, particularly Seyferts, have been shown to eject material in various forms including quasars with high intrinsic redshifts. A class of active galaxy which has so far not been analyzed from this standpoint is the so called Ultra Luminous Infrared Galaxies (ULRIG’s). Here we report the very beginning of an analysis of the three most luminous examples of such galaxies. Aided by the availability of the new VLA all sky radio surveys it is clear that these ULRIG’s show especially strong evidence for ejection in optical, radio and X-ray wavelengths. These ejections are strikingly connected with adjacent quasars, both with those of known redshifts and those which are candidate quasars waiting to be confirmed.
