Description | Gravitational lensing offers a powerful method of observing intrinsically faint, high-redshift sources. Until recently, only a handful of FIR-bright, lensed galaxies have been discovered. Most of these are magnified by a single foreground galaxy, which can be difficult to disentangle spatially. Cluster lensing, on the other hand, offers the ability to accurately reconstruct the morphology of the magnified source. The SPIRE Snapshot Survey (currently 78 clusters observed from a sample of virgul280) has so far discovered 10 bright, high redshift (z>1.5) sources. These include a confirmed z=4.69 source with 4 identified optical images coincident with submm peaks, and a z=2.4 source with a 500um flux of 230 mJy. We propose PACS 100 and 160 um observations for the 10 sources (total observing time of 7.2 hours), to complete the FIR SED and enable us to accurately constrain the FIR luminosity and dust properties. |

Mission Description | Herschel was launched on 14 May 2009! It is the fourth cornerstone mission in the ESA science programme. With a 3.5 m Cassegrain telescope it is the largest space telescope ever launched. It is performing photometry and spectroscopy in approximately the 55-671 µm range, bridging the gap between earlier infrared space missions and groundbased facilities. |
