摘要:

恒星形成的大部分都被尘埃所掩盖。为了全面了解宇宙恒星形成历史(CSFH),红外(IR)普查是不可或缺的。AKARI利用其连续9波段滤波器在北极场(5.4度$^2$)进行了深中红外观测。这占用了卫星的大量寿命,占整个定点观测的$\sim$ 10%。通过结合档案斯皮策(5个波段)和WISE(4个波段)中红外测光,我们总共有18个波段的中红外测光,这是数千个星系中红外最全面的测光覆盖范围。然而,之前,我们仅在1.0 deg $^2$的小区域中进行了浅光学成像($\sim$ 25.9 ABmag)。因此,仍然有数千个AKARI的红外光源在光学上未被检测到。使用斯巴鲁望远镜上的新Hyper Suprime-Cam,我们在5个宽波段($g\sim$ 27.5等)获得了整个AKARI NEP场足够深的光学图像。这些提供了光度红移,从而为以前未检测到的微弱AKARI红外源提供了红外光度。结合精确的中红外光度测量,我们构建了中红外LF,从而在整个AKARI NEP领域进行了尘埃遮蔽CSFH的普查。我们已经测量了restframe 8 $μ$ m,12 $μ$ m光度函数(LF),并估计总红外LF在0.35 $<$ z $<$ 2.2。我们的结果与我们以前的工作是一致的,但由于新数据的大面积覆盖,统计误差大大减少。我们可能已经见证了CSFH在$z\sim$ 2的营业额。

英文摘要:

Much of the star formation is obscured by dust. For the complete understanding of the cosmic star formation history (CSFH), infrared (IR) census is indispensable. AKARI carried out deep mid-infrared observations using its continuous 9-band filters in the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) field (5.4 deg$^2$). This took significant amount of satellite's lifetime, $\sim$10\% of the entire pointed observations. By combining archival Spitzer (5 bands) and WISE (4 bands) mid-IR photometry, we have, in total, 18 band mid-IR photometry, which is the most comprehensive photometric coverage in mid-IR for thousands of galaxies. However previously, we only had shallow optical imaging ($\sim$25.9ABmag) in a small area of 1.0 deg$^2$. As a result, there remained thousands of AKARI's infrared sources undetected in optical. Using the new Hyper Suprime-Cam on Subaru telescope, we obtained deep enough optical images of the entire AKARI NEP field in 5 broad bands ($g\sim$27.5mag). These provided photometric redshift, and thereby IR luminosity for the previously undetected faint AKARI IR sources. Combined with the accurate mid-IR luminosity measurement, we constructed mid-IR LFs, and thereby performed a census of dust-obscured CSFH in the entire AKARI NEP field. We have measured restframe 8$μ$m, 12$μ$m luminosity functions (LFs), and estimated total infrared LFs at 0.35$<$z$<$2.2. Our results are consistent with our previous work, but with much reduced statistical errors thanks to the large area coverage of the new data. We have possibly witnessed the turnover of CSFH at $z\sim$2.
