Description
The Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver on-board Herschel has been
carrying out deep extragalactic surveys, one of the aims of which is to
establish spectral energy distributions of individual galaxies spanning
the infrared/submillimetre (IR/SMM) wavelength region. We report
observations of the IR/SMM emission from the Lockman North field and
Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey Field-North. Because galaxy
images in the wavelength range covered by Herschel generally represent a
blend with contributions from neighbouring galaxies, we present sets of
galaxies in each field, especially free of blending at 250, 350 and 500
μm. We identify the cumulative emission of these galaxies and the
fraction of the FIR cosmic background radiation they contribute. Our
surveys reveal a number of highly luminous galaxies at redshift z <~
3 and a novel relationship between IR and visible emission that shows a
dependence on luminosity and redshift.

This IAC research group carries out several extragalactic projects in different spectral ranges, using space as well as ground-based telescopes, to study the cosmological evolution of galaxies and the origin of nuclear activity in active galaxies. The group is a member of the international consortium which built the SPIRE instrument for the
