- Description:
- We present Keck-Adaptive Optics and Hubble Space Telescope high resolution near-infrared (IR) imaging for 500{mu}m bright candidate lensing systems identified by the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey and Herschel Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey. Out of 87 candidates with near-IR imaging, 15 (~17%) display clear near-IR lensing morphologies. We present near-IR lens models to reconstruct and recover basic rest-frame optical morphological properties of the background galaxies from 12 new systems. Sources with the largest near-IR magnification factors also tend to be the most compact, consistent with the size bias predicted from simulations and previous lensing models for submillimeter galaxies (SMGs). The rest-frame optical properties of our sample of Herschel-selected lensed SMGs are consistent with those of unlensed SMGs, which suggests that the two populations are similar.

- Description:
- We present SCUBA-2 follow-up of 61 candidate high-redshift Planck sources. Of these, 10 are confirmed strong gravitational lenses and comprise some of the brightest such submm sources on the observed sky, while 51 are candidate proto-cluster fields undergoing massive starburst events. With the accompanying Herschel-Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver observations and assuming an empirical dust temperature prior of 34^+13^_-9_K, we provide photometric redshift and far-IR luminosity estimates for 172 SCUBA-2-selected sources within these Planck overdensity fields. The redshift distribution of the sources peak between a redshift of 2 and 4, with one-third of the sources having S_500_/S_350_>1. For the majority of the sources, we find far-IR luminosities of approximately 10^13^L_{sun}_, corresponding to star formation rates of around 1000M_{sun}_/yr. For S_850_>8mJy sources, we show that there is up to an order of magnitude increase in star formation rate density and an increase in uncorrected number counts of 6 for S_850_>8mJy when compared to typical cosmological survey fields. The sources detected with SCUBA-2 account for only approximately 5 per cent of the Planck flux at 353 GHz, and thus many more fainter sources are expected in these fields.

- Description:
- Protoplanetary disks in dense, massive star-forming regions (SFRs) are strongly affected by their environment. How this environmental impact changes over time is an important constraint on disk evolution and external photoevaporation models. We characterized the dust emission from 179 disks in the core of the young (0.5Myr) NGC 2024 cluster. By studying how the disk mass varies within the cluster, and comparing these disks to those in other regions, we determined how external photoevaporation influences disk properties over time. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), a 2.9'x2.9' mosaic centered on NGC 2024 FIR 3 was observed at 225GHz with a resolution of 0.25'', or ~100AU. It contains 179 disks identified at IR wavelengths, 7 new disk candidates, and several protostars. Of the disks in the sample, 57 are detected. The overall detection rate is 32+/-4%. Few of the disks are resolved, with the exception of a giant (R=300AU) transition disk. Serendipitously, we observe a millimeter flare from an X-ray bright Young Stellar Object (YSO), and resolve continuum emission from a Class 0 YSO in the FIR 3 core. Two distinct disk populations are present: a more massive one in the east, along the dense molecular ridge hosting the FIR 1-5 YSOs, with a detection rate of 45+/-7%. In the western population, towards IRS 1, only 15+/-4% of disks are detected. NGC 2024 hosts two distinct disk populations. Disks along the dense molecular ridge are young (0.2-0.5Myr) and partly shielded from the FUV radiation of IRS 2b; their masses are similar to isolated 1-3Myr old SFRs. The western population is older and at lower extinctions, and may be affected by external photoevaporation from both IRS 1 and IRS 2b. It is, however, possible these disks had lower masses to begin with.

- Description:
- We present the results from a Submillimeter Array survey of the 887{mu}m continuum emission from the protoplanetary disks around 95 young stars in the young cluster NGC 2024. Emission was detected from 22 infrared sources, with flux densities from ~5 to 330mJy; upper limits (at 3{sigma}) for the other 73 sources range from 3 to 24mJy. For standard assumptions, the corresponding disk masses range from ~0.003 to 0.2M_{sun}_, with upper limits at 0.002-0.01M_{sun}_. The NGC 2024 sample has a slightly more populated tail at the high end of its disk mass distribution compared to other clusters, but without more information on the nature of the sample hosts it remains unclear if this difference is statistically significant or a superficial selection effect. Unlike in the Orion Trapezium, there is no evidence for a disk mass dependence on the (projected) separation from the massive star IRS 2b in the NGC 2024 cluster. We suggest that this is due to either the cluster youth or a comparatively weaker photoionizing radiation field.

- Protoplanetary disks in PMS binaries

- Description:
- In this Letter, I examine several observational trends regarding protoplanetary disks, debris disks, and exoplanets in binary systems in an attempt to constrain the physical mechanisms of planet formation in such a context. Binaries wider than about 100AU are indistinguishable from single stars in all aspects. Binaries in the 5-100AU range, on the other hand, are associated with shorter lived but (at least in some cases) equally massive disks. Furthermore, they form planetesimals and mature planetary systems at a similar rate as wider binaries and single stars, albeit with the peculiarity that they predominantly produce high-mass planets. I posit that the location of a stellar companion influences the relative importance of the core accretion and disk fragmentation planet formation processes, with the latter mechanism being predominant in binaries tighter than 100AU.

- Description:
- We present an unbiased census of deeply embedded protostars in Perseus, Serpens, and Ophiuchus, assembled by combining large-scale 1.1mm Bolocam continuum and Spitzer Legacy surveys. We identify protostellar candidates based on their mid-infrared (mid-IR) properties, correlate their positions with 1.1mm core positions from Enoch et al. in 2006 (Cat. J/ApJ/638/293) and 2007ApJ...666..982E, and Young et al. in 2006ApJ...644..326Y, and construct well-sampled spectral energy distributions using our extensive wavelength coverage ({lambda}=1.25-1100um). Source classification based on the bolometric temperature yields a total of 39 Class 0 and 89 Class I sources in the three-cloud sample. We compare to protostellar evolutionary models using the bolometric temperature-luminosity diagram, finding a population of low-luminosity Class I sources that are inconsistent with constant or monotonically decreasing mass accretion rates.

- Description:
- We present the first cluster catalogue extracted from combined space- (Planck) and ground-based (South Pole Telescope; SPT-SZ) millimeter data. We develop and apply a Matched Multi-Filter (MMF) capable of dealing with the different transfer functions and resolutions of the two datasets. We verified that it produces results consistent with publications from Planck and SPT collaborations when applied on the datasets individually. We also verified that Planck and SPT-SZ cluster fluxes are consistent with each other. When applied blindly to the combined dataset, the MMF generated a catalogue of 419 detections (S/N>5), of which 323 are already part of the SPT-SZ or PSZ2 catalogues; 54 are new SZ detections, identified in other catalogues or surveys; and 42 are new unidentified candidates. The MMF takes advantage of the complementarity of the two datasets, Planck being particularly useful for detecting clusters at low redshift (z<0.3) while SPT is efficient at finding higher redshift (z>0.3) sources. This work represents a proof of concept that blind cluster extraction can be performed on combined, inhomogeneous millimeter datasets acquired from space and ground. This result is of prime importance for planned ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments (e.g., Simons Observatory, CMB-S4) and envisaged CMB space missions (e.g., PICO, Backlight) that will detect hundreds of thousands of clusters in the low mass regime (M500<10^14^M_{sun}_), for which the various sources of intra-cluster emission (gas, dust, synchrotron) will be of same order of magnitude and hence require broad ground+space frequency coverage with comparable spatial resolution for adequate separation.

- Radio and IR counterparts of BLAST sources in CDFS
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/703/285
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have identified radio and/or mid-infrared counterparts to 198 out of 350 sources detected at >=5{sigma} over ~9deg^2^ centered on the Chandra Deep Field South by the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) at 250, 350, and 500um. We have matched 114 of these counterparts to optical sources with previously derived photometric redshifts and fitted spectral energy distributions to the BLAST fluxes and fluxes at 70 and 160um acquired with the Spitzer Space Telescope. In this way, we have constrained dust temperatures, total far-infrared/submillimeter luminosities, and star formation rates for each source. Our findings show that, on average, the BLAST sources lie at significantly lower redshifts and have significantly lower rest-frame dust temperatures compared to submillimeter sources detected in surveys conducted at 850um. We demonstrate that an apparent increase in dust temperature with redshift in our sample arises as a result of selection effects. Finally, we provide the full multiwavelength catalog of >=5{sigma} BLAST sources contained within the complete ~9deg^2^ survey area.

- Description:
- We present radio and infrared (3.6-24um) counterparts to submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) detected in the Extended Chandra Deep Field-South with the Large APEX Bolometer Camera (LABOCA) 870um bolometer camera on the 12m Atacama Pathfinder Experiment. Using the Very Large Array at .4GHz and Spitzer, we have identified secure counterparts to 79 of the 126 SMGs [signal-to-noise ratio (S/N)>3.7, S870>4.4mJy] in the field, 62 via their radio and/or 24um emission, the remainder using a colour-flux cut on Infrared Array Camera 3.6um and 5.8um sources chosen to maximize the number of secure, coincident radio and 24um counterparts.

- Description:
- We examine an Infrared Dark Cloud (IRDC) at high spatial resolution as a means to study rotation, outflow, and infall at the onset of massive star formation. The IRDC 18223-3 was observed at 1.1mm and 1.3mm with the Submillimeter Array (SMA) and follow-up short spacing information was obtained with the IRAM 30m telescope. Additional data were taken at 3mm with the IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer (PdBI).
