（摘要）我们报告的会计恒星形成和吸积驱动的能量的24微米检测源在北货物。对于红外（IR; 8- 1000 um）亮度>3x10^12 L_sun的光源，当仅通过将局部SED拟合到24 um光度测量时，我们发现这些IR亮度估计值比当SED拟合包括额外的16和70 um数据（在某些情况下，中红外光谱和850 um数据）时估计的值大约4倍。这种差异是由于z>>0的高光度源似乎具有远红外和中红外的比率，以及芳香特征等效宽度，这是本地宇宙中低光度星系的典型特征。使用我们改进的估计红外光度和活动星系核的贡献，我们调查的红外光度密度与红移所产生的恒星形成和活动星系核过程单独的演变。我们发现，在不确定性范围内，恒星形成驱动的总红外光度密度在1.15 < z < 2.35之间是恒定的，尽管我们的结果表明在z>2时有一个稍大的值。活动星系核似乎占0< z < 2.35之间积分的总红外光度密度的<18%，在每个历元贡献<25%。在0.6 <z2之间，LIRG和正常的恒星形成星系（LIR <10^11Lsun）在恒星形成率（SFR）密度中占主导< 1.15. Once beyond z >地位，超亮红外星系ULIRGs的贡献与LIRG相当。使用我们改进的IR光度估计，我们发现现有的校准UV消光校正的基础上测量的UV光谱斜率通常overcorrect UV光度的一个因素~2，平均而言，为我们的样本24微米选定的来源，因此，我们已经得出了一个新的UV消光校正更适合我们的样本。
英文摘要：
(Abridged) We report on an accounting of the star formation and accretion driven energetics of 24um detected sources in GOODS North. For sources having infrared (IR; 8-1000um) luminosities >3x10^12 L_sun when derived by fitting local SEDs to 24um photometry alone, we find these IR luminosity estimates to be a factor of ~4 times larger than those estimated when the SED fitting includes additional 16 and 70um data (and in some cases mid-infrared spectroscopy and 850um data). This discrepancy arises from the fact that high luminosity sources at z>>0 appear to have far- to mid-infrared ratios, as well as aromatic feature equivalent widths, typical of lower luminosity galaxies in the local Universe. Using our improved estimates for IR luminosity and AGN contributions, we investigate the evolution of the IR luminosity density versus redshift arising from star formation and AGN processes alone. We find that, within the uncertainties, the total star formation driven IR luminosity density is constant between 1.15 < z < 2.35, although our results suggest a slightly larger value at z>2. AGN appear to account for <18% of the total IR luminosity density integrated between 0< z < 2.35, contributing <25% at each epoch. LIRG appear to dominate the star formation rate (SFR) density along with normal star-forming galaxies (L_IR < 10^11 L_sun) between 0.6 < z < 1.15. Once beyond z >2, the contribution from ultraluminous infrared galaxies ULIRGs becomes comparable with that of LIRGs. Using our improved IR luminosity estimates, we find existing calibrations for UV extinction corrections based on measurements of the UV spectral slope typically overcorrect UV luminosities by a factor of ~2, on average, for our sample of 24um-selected sources; accordingly we have derived a new UV extinction correction more appropriate for our sample.
How and when did galaxies form and assemble their stars and stellar mass? The answer to these questions, so crucial to astrophysics and cosmology, requires the full reconstruction of the so called cosmic star formation rate density (SFRD), i.e. the evolution of the average star formation rate per unit volume of the universe. While the SFRD has been reliably traced back to 10-11 billion years ago, its evolution is still poorly constrained at earlier cosmic epochs, and its estimate is mainly based on galaxies luminous in the ultraviolet and with low obscuration by dust. This limited knowledge is…
The diffuse cosmic X-ray background (CXB) is the sum of the emission of discrete sources, mostly massive black-holes accreting matter in active galactic nuclei (AGN). The CXB spectrum differs from the integration of the spectra of individual sources, calling for a large population, undetected so far, of strongly obscured Compton thick AGN. Such objects are predicted by unified models, which attribute most of the AGN diversity to their inclination on the line of sight, and play an important role for the understanding of the growth of black holes in the early Universe. The fraction of obscured A…
In order to investigate the origin of the ongoing tension between the amplitude of matter fluctuations measured by weak lensing experiments at low redshifts and the value inferred from the cosmic microwave background anisotropies, we reconstruct the evolution of this amplitude from $z\sim2$ using existing large-scale structure data. To do so, we decouple the linear growth of density inhomogeneities from the background expansion, and constrain its redshift dependence making use of a combination of 6 different data sets, including cosmic shear, galaxy clustering and CMB lensing. We analyze these…
We present the characteristics of 2mm-selected sources from the largest Atacama Large Millimeter and submillimeter Array (ALMA) blank-field contiguous survey conducted to-date, the Mapping Obscuration to Reionization with ALMA (MORA) survey covering 184arcmin$^2$ at 2mm. Twelve of the thirteen detections above 5$σ$ are attributed to emission from galaxies, eleven of which are dominated by cold dust emission. These sources have a median redshift of $\langle z_{\rm 2mm}\rangle=3.6^{+0.4}_{-0.3}$ primarily based on optical/near-infrared (OIR) photometric redshifts with some spectroscopic redshift…
Submillimetre-luminous galaxies at high-redshift are the most luminous, heavily star-forming galaxies in the Universe, and are characterised by prodigious emission in the far-infrared at 850 microns (S850 > 5 mJy). They reside in halos ~ 10^13Msun, have low gas fractions compared to main sequence disks at a comparable redshift, trace complex environments, and are not easily observable at optical wavelengths. Their physical origin remains unclear. Simulations have been able to form galaxies with the requisite luminosities, but have otherwise been unable to simultaneously match the stellar masse…
We report interferometric imaging of [CII] and OH emission toward the center of the galaxy protocluster associated with the z=5.3 submillimeter galaxy (SMG) AzTEC-3, using the Atacama Large (sub)Millimeter Array (ALMA). We detect strong [CII], OH, and rest-frame 157.7 um continuum emission toward the SMG. The [CII] emission is distributed over a scale of 3.9 kpc, implying a dynamical mass of 9.7 x 10^10 Msun, and a star formation rate (SFR) surface density of Sigma_SFR = 530 Msun/yr/kpc2. This suggests that AzTEC-3 forms stars at Sigma_SFR approaching the Eddington limit for radiation pressure…
On the Last 10 Billion Years of Stellar Mass Growth in Star-Forming Galaxies
恒星形成率-恒星质量关系（SFR-M*）及其演化（即，SFR主序）描述了给定恒星质量和给定红移的星系的增长率。假设现在的恒星形成星系在过去总是恒星形成的，这些增长率观测可以被整合来计算平均恒星形成历史（SFH）。使用这种主序列积分（MSI）方法，我们可以追溯到现在的大质量恒星形成星系，当它们是当前恒星质量的10-20%时。在这些时期的整合是强大的：支持我们的计算的SFR数据是一致的恒星质量密度在这个政权的演变。这些SFH的分析近似。基于积分的结果重申了以前的建议，即目前的恒星形成星系形成几乎所有的恒星质量在z <2. It follows that massive galaxies observed at z>2不是典型的祖先恒星形成星系今天。我们还检查基于MSI的SFH对那些从化石记录的分析推断-从光谱能量分布（SED）的恒星形成星系在斯隆数字巡天，和色星等图（CMD）的矮不规则星系解决恒星。一旦考虑到恒星星族年龄的不确定性，主序列与基于SED的SFH（来自VESPA）非常一致。外推SFR主序星观测到矮星系，我们发现的ACS附近的星系巡天金库和本星系群星系的CMD分析的MSI结果和SFH之间的差异。解析出的矮星系似乎比主序列趋势所暗示的要慢得多，也比质量稍高的SED分析星系慢。这种差异可能标志着SFH测定的问题，但它也可能标志着在最低恒星质量下恒星形成趋势的转变。
We derive Hα fluxes for a large spectroscopic and photometric-redshift-selected sample of sources over GOODS-North and South in the redshift range z = 3.8-5.0 with deep HST, Spitzer/IRAC, and ground-based observations. The Hα flux is inferred based on the offset between the IRAC 3.6 μm flux and that predicted from the best-fit SED. We demonstrate that the Hα flux correlates well with dust- corrected UV star-formation rate (SFR) and therefore can serve as an independent SFR indicator. However, we also find a systematic offset in the SFR_Hα/SFR_UV ratios for z ~ 4-5 galaxies relative to local re…
