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 Spectra of SCUBA Galaxies
Mark Swinbank, Ian Smail, Scott Chapman +3
We present near-infrared spectroscopy and narrow-band imaging at the wavelength of redshifted H-alpha for a sample of 30 high-redshift, far-infrared luminous galaxies. This sample…
Detection of CO from SMM J16359+6612, The Multiply Imaged Submillimeter Galaxy Behind A2218
Kartik Sheth, Andrew W. Blain, Jean-Paul Kneib +3
We report the detection of CO (=32) line emission from all three multiple images (A,B and C) of the intrinsically faint ( 0.8 mJy) submillimeter-selected galaxy SMM…
Searching for high-redshift centimeter-wave continuum, line and maser emission using the Square Kilometer Array
Andrew W. Blain, C. L. Carilli, Jeremy Darling
We discuss the detection of redshifted line and continuum emission at radio wavelengths using a Square Kilometer Array (SKA), specifically from low-excitation rotational molecular…
Molecular Gas in a z~2.5 Triply-Imaged, sub-mJy Submillimetre Galaxy Typical of the Cosmic Far-Infrared Background
Jean-Paul Kneib, Roberto Neri, Ian Smail +4
We present the results of observations from the IRAM array of the submm galaxy SMMJ16359+6612 lying at z=2.516 behind the massive cluster A2218. The foreground gravitational lens p…
A population of hot, dusty ultra-luminous galaxies at z~2
S. C. Chapman, Ian Smail, A. W. Blain +1
We report spectroscopic redshifts for 18 microJy-radio galaxies at mean redshift of z=2.2 that are faint at both submmillimeter (submm) and optical wavelengths. While the radio flu…
The submm properties of GRB host galaxies
N. R. Tanvir, V. E. Barnard, A. W. Blain +8
Long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) accompany the deaths of some massive stars and hence, since massive stars are short lived, are a tracer of star formation activity. Given that…
Accurate Spectral energy distributions and selection effects for high-redshift dusty galaxies: a new hot population to discover with the Spitzer Space Telescope?
Andrew W. Blain, Scott C. Chapman, Ian Smail +1
The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of dust-enshrouded galaxies with powerful restframe far-infrared emission have been constrained by a range of ground-based and space-borne…
Multiply-imaged submm galaxy in a z~2.5 group
Jean-Paul Kneib, Paul P. van der Werf, Kirsten Kraiberg Knudsen +5
We present observations of a remarkable submillimetre-selected galaxy, SMMJ16359+6612. This distant galaxy lies behind the core of a massive cluster of galaxies, A2218, and is grav…
Submillimeter Galaxies as Tracers of Mass Assembly at Large M
R. Genzel, A. J. Baker, R. J. Ivison +19
Luminous submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) have been known for some time to produce a substantial fraction of the far-IR/submillimeter background. New observations show that these syst…
Fact: Many SCUBA galaxies harbour AGNs
D. M. Alexander, F. E. Bauer, S. C. Chapman +4
Deep SCUBA surveys have uncovered a large population of ultra-luminous galaxies at z>1. These sources are often assumed to be starburst galaxies, but there is growing evidence that…
