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…

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…

The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey: VII. Dust in cluster dwarf elliptical galaxies

I. De Looze, M. Baes, S. Zibetti +27

We use the Science Demonstration Phase data of the Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey to search for dust emission of early-type dwarf galaxies in the central regions of the Virgo Cluste…

The Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey: II. Truncated dust disks in HI-deficient spirals

L. Cortese, J. I. Davies, M. Pohlen +27

By combining Herschel-SPIRE observations obtained as part of the Herschel Virgo Cluster Survey with 21 cm HI data from the literature, we investigate the role of the cluster enviro…

A search for debris disks in the Herschel ATLAS

M. A. Thompson, D. J. B. Smith, J. A. Stevens +42

Aims: We aim to demonstrate that the Herschel ATLAS (H-ATLAS) is suitable for a blind and unbiased survey for debris disks by identifying candidate debris disks associated with mai…

The Herschel-ATLAS: Evolution of the 250um luminosity function out to z=0.5

S. Dye, L. Dunne, S. Eales +65

We have determined the luminosity function of 250um-selected galaxies detected in the ~14 sq.deg science demonstration region of the Herschel-ATLAS project out to a redshift of z=0…

The Herschel-ATLAS: Extragalactic Number Counts from 250 to 500 Microns

D. L. Clements, E. Rigby, S. Maddox +40

Aims. The Herschel-ATLAS survey (H-ATLAS) will be the largest area survey to be undertaken by the Herschel Space Observatory. It will cover 550 sq. deg. of extragalactic sky at wav…

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…

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…

The Herschel-ATLAS: The dust energy balance in the edge-on spiral galaxy UGC 4754

M. Baes, J. Fritz, D. A. Gadotti +39

We use Herschel PACS and SPIRE observations of the edge-on spiral galaxy UGC 4754, taken as part of the H-ATLAS SDP observations, to investigate the dust energy balance in this gal…

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…
