  • An 850-micron SCUBA map of the Groth Strip and reliable source extraction 

    Coppin, Kristen, Mark Halpern, Douglas Scott, Colin Borys, et al. 2005. "An 850-micron SCUBA map of the Groth Strip and reliable source extraction." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 357(3): 1022-1028
    We present an 850-micron map and list of candidate sources in a 70 arcmin^2 sub-area of the Groth Strip observed using SCUBA. We initially detect 7 candidate sources with signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) between 3.0 and 3.5 ...

  • An ALMA survey of Sub-millimetre Galaxies in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South: Detection of [C II] at z=4.4

    We present the first photometric redshift distribution for a large unbiased sample of 870um selected submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) with robust identifications based on observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array ...

  • An ALMA survey of submillimetre galaxies in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South: High resolution 870um source counts 

    Karim, Alexander, Mark Swinbank, Jackie Hodge, Ian Smail, et al. 2013. "An ALMA survey of submillimetre galaxies in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South: High resolution 870um source counts." 432(1): 2-9
    We report the first counts of faint submillimetre galaxies (SMG) in the 870-um band derived from arcsecond resolution observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA). We have used ALMA to map a sample of 122 ...

  • An ALMA Survey of Submillimetre Galaxies in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South: The Far-Infrared Properties of SMGs 

    Swinbank, Mark, James Simpson, Ian Smail, Chris Harrison, et al. 2014. "An ALMA Survey of Submillimetre Galaxies in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South: The Far-Infrared Properties of SMGs." MNRAS 438(2):1267
    We exploit ALMA 870um (345GHz) observations of submillimetre sources in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South to investigate the far-infrared properties of high-redshift submillimetre galaxies (SMGs). Using the precisely ...

  • Detection of molecular gas in a distant submillimetre galaxy at z=4.76 with ATCA 

    Coppin, Kristen, Scott Chapman, Ian Smail, Mark Swinbank, et al. 2010. "Detection of molecular gas in a distant submillimetre galaxy at z=4.76 with ATCA." Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 407:103
    We have detected the CO(2-1) transition from the submillimetre galaxy (SMG) LESSJ033229.4-275619 at z=4.755 using the new Compact Array Broadband Backend system on the Australian Telescope Compact Array. These data have ...

  • Herschel-PACS observations of [OI]63um towards submillimetre galaxies at z 1
