Description
We study the dust properties of galaxies in the redshift range 0.1 <~
z <~ 2.8 observed by the Herschel Space Observatory in the field of
the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey-North as part of the PACS
Extragalactic Probe (PEP) and Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey
(HerMES) key programmes. Infrared (IR) luminosity (LIR) and
dust temperature (Tdust) of galaxies are derived from the
spectral energy distribution fit of the far-IR (FIR) flux densities
obtained with the PACS and SPIRE instruments onboard Herschel. As a
reference sample, we also obtain IR luminosities and dust temperatures
of local galaxies at z < 0.1 using AKARI and IRAS data in the field
of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We compare the
LIR-Tdust relation between the two samples and
find that the median Tdust of Herschel-selected galaxies at z
>~ 0.5 with LIR >~ 5 ×
1010Lsolar appears to be 2-5K colder than that of
AKARI-selected local galaxies with similar luminosities, and the
dispersion in Tdust for high-z galaxies increases with
LIR due to the existence of cold galaxies that are not seen
among local galaxies. We show that this large dispersion of the
LIR-Tdust relation can bridge the gap between
local star-forming galaxies and high-z submillimetre galaxies (SMGs). We
also find that three SMGs with very low Tdust (<~20K)
covered in this study have close neighbouring sources with similar
24-μm brightness, which could lead to an overestimation of
FIR/(sub)millimetre fluxes of the SMGs.
Herschel is an ESA space observatory with science instruments provided
by European-led Principal Investigator consortia and with important
participation from NASA.
