HerMES: deep galaxy number counts from a P(D) fluctuation analysis of SPIRE Science Demonstration Phase observations
(2010-11-01)
Dusty, star-forming galaxies contribute to a bright, currently unresolved cosmic far-infrared background. Deep Herschel-Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) images designed to detect and characterize the ...
Herschel reveals a Tdust-unbiased selection of z∼ 2 ultraluminous infrared galaxies
(2010-11-01)
Using Herschel Photodetector Array Camera (PACS) and Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) observations of Lockman Hole-North and Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey-North (GOODS-N) as part of the Herschel ...
Cold dust and young starbursts : spectral energy distributions of Herschel SPIRE sources from the HerMES survey
(2010-11-01)
We present spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 68 Herschel sources detected at 5σ at 250, 350 and 500 μm in the HerMES SWIRE-Lockman field. We explore whether existing models for starbursts, quiescent star-forming ...
The Deep SPIRE HerMES Survey: spectral energy distributions and their astrophysical indications at high redshift
(2010-11-01)
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). Cross-identifications are performed in ...
HerMES: The submillimeter spectral energy distributions of Herschel/SPIRE-detected galaxies
(2010-07-01)
We present colours of sources detected with the Herschel/SPIRE instrument in deep extragalactic surveys of the Lockman Hole, Spitzer-FLS, and GOODS-N fields in three photometric bands at 250, 350 and 500 μm. We compare ...
HerMES: Halo occupation number and bias properties of dusty galaxies from angular clustering measurements
(2010-07-01)
We measure the angular correlation function, w(θ), from 0.5 to 30 arcmin of detected sources in two wide fields of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES). Our measurements are consistent with the expected ...
HerMES: SPIRE galaxy number counts at 250, 350, and 500 µm
(2010-07-01)
Emission at far-infrared wavelengths makes up a significant fraction of the total light detected from galaxies over the age of Universe. Herschel provides an opportunity for studying galaxies at the peak wavelength of their ...
First results from HerMES on the evolution of the submillimetre luminosity function
(2010-07-01)
We have carried out two extremely deep surveys with SPIRE, one of the two cameras on Herschel, at 250 μm, close to the peak of the far-infrared background. We have used the results to investigate the evolution of the ...
