JWST observations resolve multiphase nuclear and kpc-scale outflows with velocities up to 520 km/s and PAH property gradients in the AGN-starburst composite ULIRG F10565+2448.
Aliphatic side chains on PAHs shift certain infrared band intensity ratios, especially in small molecules, which can mislead ionization-state estimates, though the main diagnostic grid still applies with possible calibration.
