  • Submillimetre and far-infrared spectral energy distributions of galaxies: the luminosity-temperature relation and consequences for photometric redshifts 

    Blain, Andrew W.; Barnard, V. E.; Chapman, Scott C. (2003-01)
    The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of dusty high-redshift galaxies are poorly sampled in frequency and spatially unresolved. Their form is crucially important for estimating the large luminosities of these galaxies ...

  • Submillimetre observations of a sample of broad absorption line quasars 

    Lewis, Geraint F.; Chapman, Scott C.; Kuncic, Zdenka (2003-10-10)
    The broad absorption line (BAL) features seen in a small fraction of quasar optical/UV spectra are attributed to bulk outflows away from the quasar core. Observational evidence suggests that dust plays a key role in these ...
