Westphal-mmd 11: an Interacting, Submillimeter Luminous Lyman Break Galaxy
We present new Hubble Space Telescope, high-resolution optical imaging of the submillimeter luminous Lyman break galaxy (LBG), Westphal-MMD 11, an interacting starburst at . The new imaging data, in conjunction z p 2.979 with reanalysis of Keck optical and near-IR spectra, demonstrate MMD 11 to be an interacting system of at least three components: a luminous blue source, a fainter blue source,...
متن کاملSimulated Submillimetre Galaxy Surveys
Current submillimetre surveys are hindered in their ability to reveal detailed information on the epoch of galaxy formation and the evolutionary history of a high-redshift starburst galaxy population. The difficulties are due to the small primary apertures (D < 15-m) of existing submil-limetre telescopes and the limited sensitivities of their first generation of bolometer cameras. This situatio...
متن کاملA search for the submillimetre counterparts to Lyman break galaxies
We have carried out targetted sub-mm observations as part of a programme to explore the connection between the rest-frame UV and far-IR properties of star-forming galaxies at high redshift, which is currently poorly understood. On the one hand the Lyman break technique is very effective at selecting z ∼ 3 galaxies. On the other hand ‘blank field’ imaging in the sub-mm seems to turn up sources r...

We present new Hubble Space Telescope, high-resolution optical imaging of the submm luminous Lyman-break galaxy, Westphal-MMD11, an interacting starburst at z = 2.979. The new imaging data, in conjunction with re-analysis of Keck optical and near-IR spectra, demonstrate MMD11 to be an interacting system of at least three components: a luminous blue source, a fainter blue source, and an extremel...
متن کاملA submillimetre-selected, ultraluminous, active galaxy
We present a detailed study of SMM02399−0136, an ultraluminous, active galaxy selected from a sub-mm survey of the distant Universe. This object is the brightest source in the fields of four rich, lensing clusters, with a total area of ∼20 arcmin, that we have mapped with a sensitivity better than 2mJy beam at 850μm. We identify a compact optical counterpart with an apparent magnitude of B ∼ 23...
