This is the second in a series of papers presenting results from the SCUBA Local Universe Galaxy Survey. In our first paper we provided 850μm flux densities for 104 galaxies selected from the IRAS Bright Galaxy Sample and we found that the 60, 100μm (IRAS) and 850μm (SCUBA) fluxes could be adequately fitted by emission from dust at a single temperature. In this paper we present 450μm data for t...
