HERSCHEL-ATLAS: A BINARY HyLIRG PINPOINTING A CLUSTER OF STARBURSTING PROTOELLIPTICALS

Abstract: Panchromatic observations of the best candidate HyLIRG from the widest Herschel extragalactic imaging survey have led to the discovery of at least four intrinsically luminous z = 2.41 galaxies across a ≈100-kpc region -a cluster of starbursting proto-ellipticals. Via sub-arcsecond interferometric imaging we have measured accurate gas and star-formation surface densities. The two brightest galaxies span ∼3 kpc FWHM in submm/radio continuum and CO J = 4−3, and double that in CO J = 1−0. The broad CO line is due … Show more

“…The excess of extreme starbursts within protoclusters found in some observational studies (e.g. Blain et al 2004;Capak et al 2011;Ivison et al 2013) is consistent with this idea. Because of the lack of spectroscopic data, we cannot discriminate between star formation and AGN activities.…”

“…maps, and created samples containing 77 and 80 sources, respectively. Spectroscopic and optical follow-up observations were able, so far, to confirm that 20 sources are indeed lensed, one is a proto-cluster (Ivison et al 2013), while the remaining sources in Negrello et al (2017) await more observations to be carried out to confirm their nature.…”

“…With more unlensed analogues of groups and recent mergers in the literature (e.g. Frayer et al 1998;Ivison et al 1998Ivison et al , 2010aIvison et al , 2013Borne et al 2000;Tacconi et al 2008) and the ALMA multiplicity results from Hodge et al (2013), it is clear that mergers and interactions play an important role for many SMGs. These distant galaxy groups are akin to nearby compact groups (Hickson 1982), with the z ∼ 2.9 galaxy group presented here reminiscent perhaps to Stephan's Quintet (Stephan 1877), due to the remarkable number of galaxies associated with this submm source.…”
