摘要:

我们提供了洛克曼洞北视场内566弧分^2区域的1.2 mm深连续谱图,该区域以前是斯皮策广域河外红外线巡天(SWIRE)的目标,我们还利用甚大阵进行了20 cm深的连续谱图绘制,这是我们利用IRAM 30 m望远镜上的马克斯-普朗克毫米波测辐射热计(MAMBO)阵列获得的。过滤后,我们的完整地图具有RMS灵敏度范围为0.45至1.5 mJy/光束,平均值为0.75 mJy/光束。使用我们最好的数据制成的地图中的像素通量分布,我们确定的形状,归一化,以及近似的通量密度截止1.2毫米的数字计数远低于我们的标称灵敏度和混乱的限制。在通过与该图的比较验证了我们的完整数据集之后,我们成功地检测到41个S/N > 4.0且S(1.2 mm)\simeq 2-5 mJy的1.2 mm源。我们使用这些检测的最重要的直接确定的整数计数下降到1.8毫焦耳,这是一致的像素通量分布分析的结果。在我们的41个单独探测中,93%具有20 cm对应物,49%具有Spitzer/MIPS 24微米对应物,并且一个可能具有显著的Chandra X射线对应物。我们将1.2 mm处宇宙红外背景(CIB)的\simeq 3%解析为显着检测,并直接估计与1.2 mm CIB的完整强度一致的计数的0.05 mJy暗端截止值。我们的17个探测的光谱或强大的光度红移的中位数红移是z(中位数)=2.3,当我们包括从无线电/远红外光谱指数估计的红移时,上升到z(中位数)=2.9。通过使用最近邻和角关联函数分析,我们发现证据表明,我们的S/N>4.0检测聚类在95%的置信水平。

英文摘要:

We present deep 1.2 mm continuum mapping of a 566 arcmin^2 area within the Lockman Hole North field, previously a target of the Spitzer Wide-area Infrared Extragalactic (SWIRE) survey and extremely deep 20 cm mapping with the Very Large Array, which we have obtained using the Max-Planck millimeter bolometer (MAMBO) array on the IRAM 30 m telescope. After filtering, our full map has an RMS sensitivity ranging from 0.45 to 1.5 mJy/beam, with an average of 0.75 mJy/beam. Using the pixel flux distribution in a map made from our best data, we determine the shape, normalization, and approximate flux density cutoff for 1.2 mm number counts well below our nominal sensitivity and confusion limits. After validating our full dataset through comparison with this map, we successfully detect 41 1.2 mm sources with S/N > 4.0 and S(1.2 mm)\simeq 2-5 mJy. We use the most significant of these detections to directly determine the integral number counts down to 1.8 mJy, which are consistent with the results of the pixel flux distribution analysis. 93% of our 41 individual detections have 20 cm counterparts, 49% have Spitzer/MIPS 24 micron counterparts, and one may have a significant Chandra X-ray counterpart. We resolve \simeq 3% of the cosmic infrared background (CIB) at 1.2 mm into significant detections, and directly estimate a 0.05 mJy faint-end cutoff for the counts that is consistent with the full intensity of the 1.2 mm CIB. The median redshift of our 17 detections with spectroscopic or robust photometric redshifts is z(median)=2.3, and rises to z(median)=2.9 when we include redshifts estimated from the radio/far-infrared spectral index. By using a nearest neighbor and angular correlation function analysis, we find evidence that our S/N>4.0 detections are clustered at the 95% confidence level.
