Abstract:The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) was revolutionary because of the extraordinary breadth and ambition of its optical imaging and spectroscopy. We argue that a 'sub-millimeter SDSS' -a sensitive large-area imaging+spectroscopic survey in the sub-mm window -will revolutionize our understanding of galaxy evolution in the early Universe. By detecting the thermal dust continuum emission and atomic and molecular line emission of galaxies out to z ≈ 10 it will be possible to measure the redshifts, star formation ra… Show more
