The suppression of star formation by powerful active galactic nuclei
M. J. Page, M. Symeonidis, J. D. Vieira +75
The old, red stars which constitute the bulges of galaxies, and the massive black holes at their centres, are the relics of a period in cosmic history when galaxies formed stars at…
The Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey: HerMES
HerMES Collaboration, S. J. Oliver, J. Bock +102
The Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey, HerMES, is a legacy program designed to map a set of nested fields totalling ~380 deg^2. Fields range in size from 0.01 to ~20 deg^2…
HerMES: point source catalogues from deep Herschel-SPIRE observations
A. J. Smith, L. Wang, S. J. Oliver +38
We describe the generation of single-band point source catalogues from submillimetre Herschel-SPIRE observations taken as part of the Science Demonstration Phase of the Herschel Mu…
Sub-millimetre galaxies reside in dark matter halos with masses greater than 3x10^11 solar masses
Alexandre Amblard, Asantha Cooray, Paolo Serra +71
The extragalactic background light at far-infrared wavelengths originates from optically-faint, dusty, star-forming galaxies in the universe with star-formation rates at the level…
HerMES: Deep Galaxy Number Counts from a P(D) Fluctuation Analysis of SPIRE Science Demonstration Phase Observations
J. Glenn, A. Conley, M. Bethermin +71
Dusty, star forming galaxies contribute to a bright, currently unresolved cosmic far-infrared background. Deep Herschel-SPIRE images designed to detect and characterize the galaxie…
The Herschel Multi-Tiered Extragalactic Survey: Source Extraction and Cross-Identifications in Confusion-Dominated SPIRE Images
I. G. Roseboom, S. J. Oliver, M. Kunz +83
We present the cross-identification and source photometry techniques used to process Herschel SPIRE imaging taken as part of the Herschel Multi-Tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES)…
