WISE Discovery of Hyper Luminous Galaxies at z=2-4 and Their Implications for Galaxy and AGN Evolution

Chao-Wei Tsai, Peter Eisenhardt, Jingwen Wu +14

On behalf of the WISE Science team, we present the discovery of a class of distant dust-enshrouded galaxies with extremely high luminosity. These galaxies are selected to have extr…

Submillimeter Follow-up of WISE-Selected Hyperluminous Galaxies

Jingwen Wu, Chao-Wei Tsai, Jack Sayers +20

We have used the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) to follow-up a sample of WISE-selected, hyperluminous galaxies, so called W1W2-dropout galaxies. This is a rare (~ 1000 all…

The First Hyper-Luminous Infrared Galaxy Discovered by WISE

Peter R. M. Eisenhardt, Jingwen Wu, Chao-Wei Tsai +21

We report the discovery by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer of the z = 2.452 source WISE J181417.29+341224.9, the first hyperluminous source found in the WISE survey. WISE 1…

A New Population of High Redshift, Dusty Lyman-Alpha Emitters and Blobs Discovered by WISE

Carrie R. Bridge, Andrew Blain, Colin J. K. Borys +11

We report a new technique to select 1.6<z<4.6 dusty Lyman-alpha emitters (LAEs), over a third of which are `blobs' (LABs) with emission extended on scales of 30-100kpc. Combining d…

Mid-Infrared Selection of AGN with the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer. I. Characterizing WISE-Selected AGN in COSMOS

Daniel Stern, Roberto J. Assef, Dominic J. Benford +15

The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) is an extremely capable and efficient black hole finder. We present a simple mid-infrared color criterion, W1-W2 \geq 0.8 (i.e., [3.4…

The DEEP3 Galaxy Redshift Survey: The Impact of Environment on the Size Evolution of Massive Early-type Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift

Michael C. Cooper, Roger L. Griffith, Jeffrey A. Newman +10

Using data drawn from the DEEP2 and DEEP3 Galaxy Redshift Surveys, we investigate the relationship between the environment and the structure of galaxies residing on the red sequenc…
