“…Using data from the literature and various telescope archives, we compiled multi-band photometry tracing emission from the RRR in the (observed-frame) midinfrared to mm-wavelengths (Geach et al 2015;Harrington et al 2016;Schulz et al 2017;Su et al 2017). We fit the observed SED with a single temperature modified blackbody (MBB) model combined with a Wien-side power-law slope, denoted as α, of which a value of α ∼2 is characteristic for SFGs (e.g., Casey et al 2012).…”

“…The intrinsic specific radio luminosity L1.4GHz ≈ 10 25 W Hz −1 suggests a radio-mode AGN (Geach et al 2015). The wavelength corresponding to the peak line flux of the asymmetric low-J CO line profile corresponds to a redshift, z∼2.553 for the RRR (Harrington et al 2016;Su et al 2017). Detailed strong lens modeling of the CO(3-2) emission resolved by NOEMA (θ ∼ 0.75×1.5") suggests that the observed molecular gas emission arises from a rotating disk spread over ∼3 kpc in the source-plane (Rivera et al 2018).…”

“…2 THE RED RADIO RING the RRR was discovered by four independent teams: (i) the citizen science program SpaceWarps (Marshall et al 2016) in a search for gravitational lensing features within deep (iJKs band) CFHT images in the Herschel -Stripe82 field (Geach et al 2015); (ii) Harrington et al (2016) identified this source after cross-matching Herschel -SPIRE and Planck images at 350µm in order to identify strongly lensed, DS-FGs (Negrello et al 2010;Fu et al 2012;Planck Collaboration XXVII 2015;Wardlow et al 2013;Cañameras et al 2015) and further confirmed with follow-up CO and millimetre dust continuum observations with the Large Millimeter Telescope; (iii) Nayyeri et al (2016) present a similar selection of candidate lensed, DSFGs as Harrington et al (2016), but with SPIRE 500µm images instead; and (iv) Su et al (2017) identified the RRR as the brightest DSFG candidate (referred to as ACTJ0210+0016) in the 148, 218, and 278 GHz maps from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT ), and presented follow-up CO(1-0) line observations with Green Bank Telescope/Zpectrometer. the RRR is a strongly lensed radio-AGN/DSFG hybrid galaxy, magnified by a massive, foreground elliptical galaxy and a satellite companion at z = 0.2019 (Geach et al 2015).…”

ABSTRACT We report the detection of the far-infrared (FIR) fine-structure line of singly ionized nitrogen, [N ii] 205 $\mu$m , within the peak epoch of galaxy assembly, from a strongly lensed galaxy, hereafter ‘The Red Radio Ring’; the RRR, at z = 2.55. We combine new observations of the ground-state and mid-J transitions of CO (Jup = 1, 5, 8), and the FIR spectral energy distribution (SED), to explore the multiphase interstellar medium (ISM) properties of the RRR. All line profiles suggest that the H ii regions, traced by [N ii] 205 $\mu$m , and the (diffuse and dense) molecular gas, traced by CO, are cospatial when averaged over kpc-sized regions. Using its mid-IR-to-millimetre (mm) SED, we derive a non-negligible dust attenuation of the [N ii] 205 $\mu$m line emission. Assuming a uniform dust screen approximation results a mean molecular gas column density >1024 cm−2, with a molecular gas-to-dust mass ratio of 100. It is clear that dust attenuation corrections should be accounted for when studying FIR fine-structure lines in such systems. The attenuation corrected ratio of $L_{\rm N\,{\small II}205} / L_{\rm IR(8\!-\!1000\, \mu m)} = 2.7 \times 10^{-4}$ is consistent with the dispersion of local and z > 4 SFGs. We find that the lower limit, [N ii] 205 $\mu$m -based star formation rate (SFR) is less than the IR-derived SFR by a factor of 4. Finally, the dust SED, CO line SED, and $L_{\rm N\,{\small II}205}$ line-to-IR luminosity ratio of the RRR is consistent with a starburst-powered ISM.

“…Similarly, at mm wavelengths, the SPT survey has already discovered several tens of lensed galaxies (e.g. Vieira et al 2013;Spilker et al 2016) and other lensing events have been found in the Planck all-sky surveys (Cañameras et al 2015;Planck Collaboration XXVII 2015;Harrington et al 2016) Having a large sample of strongly lensed DSFGs is important for several reasons. (i) Thanks to the boosting in luminosity and increase in angular size offered by gravitational lensing, distant galaxies can be studied with unprecedented details down to sub-kpc scales.…”

Microwave spectro-polarimetry of matter and radiation across space and time

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper discusses the science case for a sensitive spectro-polarimetric survey of the microwave sky. Such a survey would provide a tomographic and dynamic census of the three-dimensional distribution of hot gas, velocity flows, early metals, dust, and mass distribution in the entire Hubble volume, exploit CMB temperature and polarisation anisotropies down to fundamental limits, and track energy injection and absorption into the radiation background across cosmic times by measuring spectral distortions of the CMB blackbody emission. In addition to its exceptional capability for cosmology and fundamental physics, such a survey would provide an unprecedented view of microwave emissions at sub-arcminute to few-arcminute angular resolution in hundreds of frequency channels, a data set that would be of immense legacy value for many branches of astrophysics. We propose that this survey be carried out with a large space mission featuring a broad-band polarised imager and a moderate resolution spectro-imager at the focus of a 3.5 m aperture telescope actively cooled to about 8K, complemented with absolutely-calibrated Fourier Transform Spectrometer modules observing at degree-scale angular resolution in the 10–2000 GHz frequency range. We propose two observing modes: a survey mode to map the entire sky as well as a few selected wide fields, and an observatory mode for deeper observations of regions of specific interest.
