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 ...
The SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey : the submillimetre properties of Lyman-break galaxies at z = 3-5
(2015-01-11)
We present detections at 850 μm of the Lyman-break galaxy (LBG) population at z ≈ 3, 4, and 5 using data from the Submillimetre Common User Bolometer Array 2 Cosmology Legacy Survey in the United Kingdom Infrared Deep Sky ...
The temperature dependence of the far-infrared-radio correlation in the Herschel-ATLAS
(2014-12-11)
We use 10 387 galaxies from the Herschel Astrophysical TeraHertz Large Area Survey (H-ATLAS) to probe the far-infrared radio correlation (FIRC) of star-forming galaxies as a function of redshift, wavelength, and effective ...
Herschel-ATLAS: Far-infrared properties of radio-loud and radio-quiet quasars
(2014-08-01)
We have constructed a sample of radio-loud and radio-quiet quasars from the Faint Images Radio Sky at Twenty-one centimetres and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7, over the Herschel-ATLAS Phase 1 area (9h, 12h ...
A surprising consistency between the far-infrared galaxy luminosity functions of the field and Coma
(2014-08-01)
We present new deep images of the Coma Cluster from the ESA Herschel Space Observatory at wavelengths of 70, 100 and 160 μm, covering an area of 1.75 × 1.0 square degrees encompassing the core and south-west infall region. ...
Herschel-ATLAS: properties of dusty massive galaxies at low and high redshifts
(2014-06-21)
We present a comparison of the physical properties of a rest-frame 250-μm-selected sample of massive, dusty galaxies from 0 < z < 5.3. Our sample comprises 29 high-redshift submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) from the literature ...
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 ...
The SCUBA-2 cosmology legacy survey : Demographics of the 450-μm population
(2013-11-01)
We investigate the multiwavelength properties of a sample of 450-μm-selected sources from the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey. A total of 69 sources were identified above 4σ in deep SCUBA-2 450-μm observations overlapping ...
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 ...
