A Redshift Survey of the Submillimeter Galaxy Population

S. C. Chapman, A. W. Blain, Ian Smail +1

We have obtained spectroscopic redshifts using the Keck-I telescope for a sample of 73 submillimeter (submm) galaxies for which precise positions are available. The galaxies lie at…

A robust sample of submillimetre galaxies: constraints on the prevalence of dusty, high-redshift starbursts

R. J. Ivison

We develop and apply a dual-survey extraction technique to published submm images of the Lockman Hole using the SCUBA and MAMBO bolometer arrays. Cut above 5 sigma, this catalogue…

The Rest-Frame Optical Properties of SCUBA Galaxies

Ian Smail, S. C. Chapman, A. W. Blain +1

We present optical and near-IR photometry of 96 dusty, far-IR luminous galaxies. We have precise spectroscopic redshifts for all these galaxies yielding a median redshift of z=2.2.…

Complete Multiwavelength Characterization of Faint Chandra X-ray Sources Seen in the Spitzer Wide-Area IR Extragalactic (SWIRE) Survey

A. Franceschini, J. Manners, M. Polletta +24

We exploit deep combined observations with Spitzer and Chandra of the SWIRE survey in the ELAIS-N1 region, to investigate the nature of the faint X-ray and IR sources in common, to…

Evidence for extended, obscured starbursts in submm galaxies

S. C. Chapman, Ian Smail, R. Windhorst +2

We compare high-resolution optical and radio imaging of 12 luminous submm galaxies at z=2.2+/-0.2 observed with HST and the MERLIN and VLA at comparable spatial resolution, 0.3" (2…

Short time-scale optical variability of the dwarf Seyfert nucleus in NGC 4395

J. E. Skelton, A. Lawrence, A. Pappa +2

We present optical spectroscopic observations of the least-luminous known Seyfert 1 galaxy, NGC 4395, which was monitored every half-hour over the course of 3 nights. The continuum…
