HerMES: SPIRE/Sub-millimetre Emission from Radio Selected AGN

N. Seymour, M. Symeonidis, M. Page +1

We examine the rest-frame far-infrared emission from powerful radio sources with 1.4GHz luminosity densities of 25<=log(L_1.4/WHz^-1)<=26.5 in the extragalactic Spitzer First Look…

Herschel reveals a T_dust-unbiased selection of z~2 ULIRGs

G. E. Magdis, H-S Hwang, D. Elbaz +1

Using Herschel PACS and SPIRE observations of Lockman Hole-North and GOODS-N as part of the HerMES project, we explore the far-IR properties of a sample of mid-IR selected starburs…

The Herschel-SPIRE instrument and its in-flight performance

M. J. Griffin, A. Abergel, A. Abreu +176

The Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE), is the Herschel Space Observatory`s submillimetre camera and spectrometer. It contains a three-band imaging photometer operat…

Herschel-SPIRE observations of the disturbed galaxy NGC4438

L. Cortese, G. J. Bendo, A. Boselli +56

We present Herschel-SPIRE observations of the perturbed galaxy NGC4438 in the Virgo cluster. These images reveal the presence of extra-planar dust up to ~4-5 kpc away from the gala…

HerMES: The SPIRE confusion limit

H. T. Nguyen, B. Schulz, L. Levenson +69

We report on the sensitivity of SPIRE photometers on the Herschel Space Observatory. Specifically, we measure the confusion noise from observations taken during the Science Demonst…

Mapping the interstellar medium in galaxies with Herschel/SPIRE

S. A. Eales, M. W. L. Smith, C. D. Wilson +57

The standard method of mapping the interstellar medium in a galaxy, by observing the molecular gas in the CO 1-0 line and the atomic gas in the 21-cm line, is largely limited with…

Herschel photometric observations of the low metallicity dwarf galaxy NGC 1705

B. O'Halloran, M. Galametz, S. C. Madden +57

We present Herschel SPIRE and PACS photometeric observations of the low metallicity (Z ~ 0.35 solar) nearby dwarf galaxy, NGC 1705, in six wavelength bands as part of the Dwarf Gal…

The Herschel Space Observatory view of dust in M81

G. J. Bendo, C. D. Wilson, M. Pohlen +57

We use Herschel Space Observatory data to place observational constraints on the peak and Rayleigh-Jeans slope of dust emission observed at 70-500 microns in the nearby spiral gala…

Herschel photometric observations of the nearby low metallicity irregular galaxy NGC 6822

M. Galametz, S. C. Madden, F. Galliano +57

We present the first Herschel PACS and SPIRE images of the low-metallicity galaxy NGC6822 observed from 70 to 500 mu and clearly resolve the HII regions with PACS and SPIRE. We fin…

FIR colours and SEDs of nearby galaxies observed with Herschel

A. Boselli, L. Ciesla, V. Buat +78

We present infrared colours (in the 25-500 mic spectral range) and UV to radio continuum spectral energy distributions of a sample of 51 nearby galaxies observed with SPIRE on Hers…
