FIRI - a Far-Infrared Interferometer
Frank Helmich, Rob Ivison
Half of the energy ever emitted by stars and accreting objects comes to us in the FIR waveband and has yet to be properly explored. We propose a powerful Far-InfraRed Interferomete…

The SCUBA-2 "All-Sky" Survey
M. A. Thompson, S. Serjeant, T. Jenness +45
The sub-millimetre wavelength regime is perhaps the most poorly explored over large areas of the sky, despite the considerable effort that has been expended in making deep maps ove…
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - IV: Radio-mm-FIR photometric redshifts
Itziar Aretxaga, David H. Hughes, Kristen Coppin +28
We present the redshift distribution of the SHADES galaxy population based on the rest-frame radio-mm-FIR colours of 120 robustly detected 850um sources in the Lockman Hole East (L…
Constraints on the prevalence of luminous, dusty starbursts at very high redshifts
R. J. Ivison
At a conference devoted to ever deeper surveys hunting for ever more distant galaxies, I posed a question for which a concensus view has been difficult to reach: `Is there evidence…
