Morphologies of High Redshift, Dust Obscured Galaxies from Keck Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics

J. Melbourne, V. Desai, Lee Armus +7

Spitzer MIPS images in the Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey have revealed a class of extremely dust obscured galaxy (DOG) at z~2. The DOGs are defined by very red op…

The Mid-Infrared Properties of X-ray Sources

V. Gorjian, M. Brodwin, C. S. Kochanek +16

We combine the results of the Spitzer IRAC Shallow Survey and the Chandra XBootes Survey of the 8.5 square degrees Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide- Field Survey to produce the l…

Redshift Distribution of Extragalactic 24 micron Sources

Vandana Desai, B. T. Soifer, Arjun Dey +10

We present the redshift distribution of a complete, unbiased sample of 24 micron sources down to fnu(24 micron) = 300 uJy (5-sigma). The sample consists of 591 sources detected in…

A Significant Population of Very Luminous Dust-Obscured Galaxies at Redshift z ~ 2

Arjun Dey, B. T. Soifer, Vandana Desai +12

Observations with Spitzer Space Telescope have recently revealed a significant population of high-redshift z~2 dust-obscured galaxies (DOGs) with large mid-IR to UV luminosity rati…
