The space density of luminous dusty star-forming galaxies at $z>4$ : SCUBA-2 and LABOCA imaging of ultrared galaxies from $Herschel$-ATLAS
(2016-11-18)
Until recently, only a handful of dusty, star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) were known at $z>4$, most of them significantly amplified by gravitational lensing. Here, we have increased the number of such DSFGs substantially, ...
ATCA detections of massive molecular gas reservoirs in dusty, high-z radio galaxies
(2016-10-27)
Observations using the 7 mm receiver system on the Australia Telescope Compact Array have revealed large reservoirs of molecular gas in two high-redshift radio galaxies: HATLAS J090426.9+015448 (z = 2.37) and HATLAS ...
GAMA/H-ATLAS: common star formation rate indicators and their dependence on galaxy physical parameters
(2016-09-11)
We compare common star-formation rate (SFR) indicators in the local Universe in the GAMA equatorial fields (around 160 sq. deg.), using ultraviolet (UV) photometry from GALEX, far-infrared (FIR) and sub-millimetre (sub-mm) ...
Far-infrared observations of an unbiased sample of gamma-ray burst host galaxies
(2015-04-01)
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic phenomena in the Universe; believed to result from the collapse and subsequent explosion of massive stars. Even though it has profound consequences for our understanding of ...
Isothermal dust models of Herschel-ATLAS galaxies
(2013-12)
We use galaxies from the Herschel-ATLAS (H-ATLAS) survey, and a suite of ancillary simulations based on an isothermal dust model, to study our ability to determine the effective dust temperature, luminosity and emissivity ...
A Herschel*-ATLAS study of dusty spheroids : Probing the minor-merger process in the local Universe
(2013-10)
We use multiwavelength (0.12-500 μm) photometry from Herschel-ATLAS, WISE, UKIDSS, SDSS and GALEX to study 23 nearby spheroidal galaxies with prominent dust lanes (DLSGs). DLSGs are considered to be remnants of recent minor ...
Herschel-ATLAS/GAMA : the environmental density of far-infrared bright galaxies at z < 0.5
(2013-07)
We compare the environmental and star formation properties of far-infrared detected and non-far-infrared detected galaxies out to z similar to 0.5. Using optical spectroscopy and photometry from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly ...
Herschel-ATLAS/GAMA: What determines the far-infrared properties of radio galaxies?
(2013-06)
We perform a stacking analysis of Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS) data in order to obtain isothermal dust temperatures and rest-frame luminosities at 250 mu m (L-250), for a well-defined sample ...
The Herschel PEP/HerMES luminosity function - I : Probing the evolution of PACS selected Galaxies to z sime 4
(2013-06-01)
We exploit the deep and extended far-IR data sets (at 70, 100 and 160 μm) of the Herschel Guaranteed Time Observation (GTO) PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP) Survey, in combination with the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic ...
Herschel-ATLAS : the far-infrared properties and star-formation rates of broad absorption line quasi-stellar objects
(2012-12-01)
We have used data from the Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large-Area Survey (H-ATLAS) at 250, 350 and 500 μm to determine the far-infrared (FIR) properties of 50 broad absorption line quasars (BAL QSOs)
