The Nature of the faint far-infrared extragalactic source population: Optical/NIR and radio follow-up observations of ISOPHOT deep-field sources using Keck, Subaru, and VLA telescopes
Yuko Kakazu, D. B. Sanders, R. D. Joseph +11
We report on optical and near-infrared (NIR) follow-up spectroscopy of faint far-infrared (FIR) sources found in our deep FIR survey by Kawara et al.
Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies and the Origin of QSOs
D. B. Sanders
We review the evidence which suggests that ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIGs) are the precursors of optically selected quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) and discuss additional data…
Imaging of a Complete Sample of IR-Excess PG QSOs
Jason A. Surace, David B. Sanders
Ground-based high spatial-resolution optical and near-IR imaging at BIHK' is presented for a complete sample of optically selected Palomar-Green QSOs which have infrared excesses a…
Hiden Star Formation: The Ultraviolet Perspective
G. R. Meurer, T. M. Heckman, M. Seibert +4
Many recent estimates of the star formation rate density at high redshift rely on rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) data. These are highly sensitive to dust absorption. Applying a correl…
ISO deep far-infrared survey in the "Lockman Hole" II. Power spectrum analysis: evidence of a strong evolution in number counts
H. Matsuhara, K. Kawara, Y. Sato +8
We investigate the characteristics of FIR brightness fluctuations at 90 micron and 170 micron in the Lockman Hole, which were surveyed with ISOPHOT aboard the Infrared Space Observ…
Gamma-Ray Bursts as a Cosmic Window for Galaxy Evolution
I. F. Mirabel, D. B. Sanders, E. Le Floc'h
Present knowledge indicates that gamma-ray bursts are linked with massive stars. They will become invaluable probes of the early universe and galaxy formation. In the future, it wi…
