A Submm View of the Universe: Clues to the Formation of Massive Galaxies

Ian Smail, Scott Chapman, Andrew Blain +1

We discuss recent advances in the study of dusty, massive galaxies at z>1 arising from the first extensive spectroscopic surveys.

Near-Infrared Colors of Submillimeter-Selected Galaxies

D. T. Frayer, N. A. Reddy, L. Armus +3

We report on deep near-infrared (NIR) observations of submillimeter-selected galaxies (SMGs) with the Near Infrared Camera (NIRC) on the Keck I telescope. We have identified K-band…

The bright optical afterglow of the nearby gamma-ray burst of 29 March 2003

P. A. Price, D. W. Fox, S. R. Kulkarni +11

Many past studies of cosmological gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been limited because of the large distance to typical GRBs, resulting in faint afterglows. There has long been a reco…

The spectroscopic redshifts of SCUBA galaxies: implications for spheroid formation

S. C. Chapman, A. W. Blain, R. J. Ivison +1

We present spectroscopic identifications for a sample of 55 submillimeter(submm)-selected `SCUBA' galaxies, lying at redshifts z=0.7 to 3.7, that were pinpointed in deep 1.4-GHz VL…

A median redshift of 2.4 for galaxies bright at submillimetre wavelengths

S. C. Chapman, A. W. Blain, R. J. Ivison +1

A significant fraction of the energy emitted in the early Universe came from very luminous galaxies that are largely hidden at optical wavelengths (because of interstellar dust gra…

The z=2.51 Extremely Red Submillimeter Galaxy SMMJ04431+0210

D. T. Frayer, L. Armus, N. Z. Scoville +4

We report the redshift measurement for the submillimeter selected galaxy SMMJ04431+0210 (N4) using the Near Infrared Spectrograph on the Keck-II telescope. The data show H-alpha, […

A Vigorous Starburst in the SCUBA Galaxy N2 850.4

Ian Smail, S. C. Chapman, R. J. Ivison +5

We present optical and near-IR spectroscopy of a z=2.38 hyperluminous IR galaxy, covering the restframe wavelength range from 1000-5000A. It appears to comprise two components sepa…
