The Most Luminous Galaxies Discovered by WISE

Chao-Wei Tsai, Peter Eisenhardt, Jingwen Wu +25

We present 20 WISE-selected galaxies with bolometric luminosities L_bol > 10^14 L_sun, including five with infrared luminosities L_IR = L(rest 8-1000 micron) > 10^14 L_sun. These "…

Half of the Most Luminous Quasars May Be Obscured: Investigating the Nature of WISE-Selected Hot, Dust-Obscured Galaxies

Roberto J. Assef, Peter R. M. Eisenhardt, Daniel Stern +9

The WISE mission has unveiled a rare population of high-redshift (), dusty, hyper-luminous galaxies, with infrared luminosities , and somet…

Molecular gas content in strongly-lensed z~1.5-3 star-forming galaxies with low IR luminosities

M. Dessauges-Zavadsky, M. Zamojski, D. Schaerer +10

To extend the molecular gas measurements to typical star-forming galaxies (SFGs) with SFR < 40 Msun yr^{-1} and M* < 2.5x10^{10} Msun at z~1.5-3, we have observed CO emission with…

The SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey: the submillimetre properties of Lyman break galaxies at z=3-5

K. E. K. Coppin, J. E. Geach, O. Almaini +28

We present statistically significant detections at 850um of the Lyman Break Galaxy (LBG) population at z=3, 4, and 5 using data from the Submillimetre Common User Bolometer Array 2…

Submillimetre observations of WISE-selected high-redshift, luminous, dusty galaxies

Suzy F. Jones, Andrew W. Blain, Daniel Stern +9

We present SCUBA-2 850um submillimetre (submm) observations of the fields of 10 dusty, luminous galaxies at z ~ 1.7 - 4.6, detected at 12um and/or 22um by the WISE all-sky survey,…

Interferometric Follow-Up of WISE Hyper-Luminous Hot, Dust-Obscured Galaxies

Jingwen Wu, R. Shane Bussmann, Chao-Wei Tsai +10

WISE has discovered an extraordinary population of hyper-luminous dusty galaxies which are faint in the two bluer passbands (m and m) but are bright in the two re…

NuSTAR and XMM-Newton Observations of Luminous, Heavily Obscured, WISE-Selected Quasars at z ~ 2

D. Stern, G. B. Lansbury, R. J. Assef +30

We report on a NuSTAR and XMM-Newton program that has observed a sample of three extremely luminous, heavily obscured WISE-selected AGN at z~2 in a broad X-ray band (0.1 - 79 keV).…

A submillimeter galaxy illuminating its circumgalactic medium: Ly-alpha scattering in a cold, clumpy outflow

J. E. Geach, R. G. Bower, D. M. Alexander +17

We report the detection at 850um of the central source in SSA22-LAB1, the archetypal Lyman-alpha Blob (LAB), a 100kpc-scale radio-quiet emission-line nebula at z=3.1. The flux dens…
