Strangers in the night: Discovery of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy on its first Local Group infall
S. C. Chapman, J. Penarrubia, R. Ibata +9
We present spectroscopic observations of the AndXII dwarf spheroidal galaxy using DEIMOS/Keck-II, showing it to be moving rapidly through the Local Group (-556 km/s heliocentric ve…
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - III. Identification of radio and mid-infrared counterparts to submillimetre galaxies
R. J. Ivison, T. R. Greve, J. S. Dunlop +35
Determining an accurate position for a submm galaxy (SMG) is the crucial step that enables us to move from the basic properties of an SMG sample - source counts and 2-D clustering…
The Spitzer Legacy Survey of the HST-ACS 2 sq. deg. COSMOS Field: survey strategy and first analysis
D. B. Sanders, M. Salvato, H. Aussel +39
The Spitzer-COSMOS survey (S-COSMOS) is a Legacy program (Cycles 2+3) designed to carry out a uniform deep survey of the full 2 sq deg COSMOS field in all seven Spitzer bands (3.6,…
Large Structures and Galaxy Evolution in COSMOS at z < 1.1
N. Scoville, H. Aussel, A. Benson +25
We present the first identification of large-scale structures (LSS) at z in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS). The structures are identified from adaptive smoothing of g…
COSMOS : Hubble Space Telescope Observations
N. Scoville, A. Benson, A. W. Blain +50
The Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) was initiated with an extensive allocation (590 orbits in Cycles 12-13) using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) for high resolution imaging. Her…
Observing Cold Gas in Submillimeter Galaxies: Detection of CO(1-0) Emission in SMM J13120+4242 with the Green Bank Telescope
L. J. Hainline, A. W. Blain, T. R. Greve +3
We report the first detection of CO(1-0) emission from a submillimeter-selected galaxy, using the Green Bank Telescope. We identify the line in the spectrum of SMM J13120+4242 as a…
An ultradeep submillimetre map: beneath the SCUBA confusion limit with lensing and robust source extraction
K. K. Knudsen, V. E. Barnard, P. P. van der Werf +7
Extracting sources with low signal-to-noise from maps with structured background is a non-trivial task which has become important in studying the faint end of the submillimetre num…
Mission Concept for the Single Aperture Far-Infrared (SAFIR) Observatory
Dominic J. Benford, Michael J. Amato, John C. Mather +2
The Single Aperture Far-InfraRed (SAFIR) Observatory's science goals are driven by the fact that the earliest stages of almost all phenomena in the universe are shrouded in absorpt…
The very bright SCUBA galaxy count: looking for SCUBA galaxies with the Mexican Hat Wavelet
V. E. Barnard, P. Vielva, D. P. I. Pierce-Price +4
We present the results of a search for bright high-redshift galaxies in two large SCUBA scan-maps of Galactic regions. A Mexican Hat Wavelet technique was used to locate point sour…
Discs in early-type lensing galaxies: effects on magnification ratios and measurements of
Ole Moeller, Paul Hewett, A. W. Blain
Observations of early-type galaxies, both in the local universe and in clusters at medium redshifts, suggest that these galaxies often contain discs or disc-like structures. Using…
SCUBA observations of the host galaxies of four dark gamma-ray bursts
V. E. Barnard, A. W. Blain, N. R. Tanvir +7
We present the results of a search for submillimetre-luminous host galaxies of optically dark gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) using the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on…
Testing the connection between the X-ray and submillimetre source populations using Chandra
A. C. Fabian, I. Smail, K. Iwasawa +8
The powerful combination of the Chandra X-ray telescope, the SCUBA submillimetre-wave camera and the gravitational lensing effect of the massive galaxy clusters A2390 and A1835 has…
Observational limits to source confusion in the millimetre/submillimetre waveband
A W Blain, R J Ivison, Ian Smail
The first observations to detect a population of distant galaxies directly in the submillimetre waveband have recently been made using the new Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer A…
A Deep Sub-millimeter Survey of Lensing Clusters: A New Window on Galaxy Formation and Evolution
Ian Smail, R. J. Ivison, A. W. Blain
We present the first results of a sub-millimeter survey of distant clusters using the new Sub-mm Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. We have m…
