Description
We measure the angular correlation function, w(θ), from 0.5 to 30
arcmin of detected sources in two wide fields of the Herschel
Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES). Our measurements are
consistent with the expected clustering shape from a population of
sources that trace the dark matter density field, including non-linear
clustering at arcminute angular scales arising from multiple sources
that occupy the same dark matter halos. By making use of the halo model
to connect the spatial clustering of sources to the dark matter halo
distribution, we estimate source bias and halo occupation number for
dusty sub-mm galaxies at z ~ 2. We find that sub-mm galaxies with 250
μm flux densities above 30 mJy reside in dark matter halos with mass
above (5±4)×1012 M&sun;, while
(14±8)% of such sources appear as satellites in more massive
halos.
Herschel is an ESA space observatory with science instruments provided
by European-led Principal Investigator consortia and with important
participation from NASA.
