microns.

5Why Far Infrared?
- Detecting hidden star-formation
- Quantifying star-formation
- Insensitive to Galactic extinction
- Strong emission lines and easy redshift follow-up
6Because its there

10Why all-sky?
- Rare objects
- Good statistical sampling of populations
- Access to large spatial scales
- Overcome cosmic variance
- Clean window function

19Science
- Cosmological star-formation
- star-formation in normal galaxies
- monsters the transition from IRAS to SCUBA
- star-formation environment on small-large
scales
- Galaxies as probes of cosmology
- Integrated Sachs Wolfe (ISW) effect
- Baryon Oscillations

Dz 0.2 DLogL 0.2 DN 100
21Star-formation Environment
- Smallest scales (internal to galaxies)
- LFIR vs LOPT SFR vs Stellar mass
- requires large dynamic range in L and z
- Small scales
- SF as a function of local density
- requires large variety of environments
- I.e. sufficient volume to include many clusters
at different z 1000 sq deg.
- Largest scales
- SFR density field
- Requires large volume

26 Late-time Integrated Sachs Wolfe
(ISW) Effect
The ISW measures a differential redshift of CDM
photons in a evolving potential well (see
figure). In a flat, matter-dominated universe,
density fluctuations dont grow. Therefore if
the Universe is flat, any detected ISW effect is
a direct physical measurement of Dark Energy
Figure from Wayne Hu
27ISW and the SDSS
- Searching for a detection
- LRG selection to z0.6 (Eisenstein et al. 2001)
- 3500 sq degrees
- Achromatic (no contamination)
- Jacknife errors
- Compared to a null result
- 90 all samples
- Low redshift sample contaminated by stars
- Individually 2s per redshift slice
- 4 redshift shells (significant overlap)
Grey Clean, Red Q, Blue W, Green V
28Future ISW Directions
- dg/dz is a very powerful probe
- See Cooray, Huterer, Baumann 2003
- Errors dominated by 2 effects
- Cosmic Variance. Therefore all-sky surveys are
key
- ASTRO-F all-sky out to z1.5
- 3sigma detection on large scales (2 degrees) in
3 z shells (figure opposite)
- Accurate photometric redshifts are also key
- Need enough (real) redshifts to determine n(z)
precisely (eg SDSS-2dF LRG survey)
- Make thinner z shells
z0.3
z0.5
z1.0
The S/N for the 3 bands is 3.0, 3.4 and 4.1 for
N60, WideS and WideL
29Prediction Explanation
- Assumes Lambda CDM
- Used gaussian n(z) for the three slices
- N60 z_mean0.3 z_sig0.1
- WideS z_mean0.5 z_sig0.2
- WideL z_mean1.0 z_sig0.5
- Assume all-sky (no galaxy subtract)
- The S/N for the 3 bands is 3.0, 3.4 and 4.1 for
N60, WideS and WideL
- Uses Halo model
30Baryon Oscillations
- A clean measurement of Dark Energy parameters
- Tentative detections
- PSC-z 20k sources, all-sky 1s (? Et al.)
- 2dFGRS 200k sources, 1000 sq deg. (Percival et al. 2003)
- 10 s measurement requires
- 1 Million redshifts
- 10k sq deg.
- AAO omega
- 3000 Pointings 10k sq deg 1M galaxies
- _at_ 1hr per pointing 400 nights
31Baryon Oscillations
- Measuring the baryonic oscillations gives you a
standard ruler at known redshift, which gives..
- 300 nights using FMOS on Subaru (1000 sq. deg.)
(predictions by Karl Glazebrook)or cover the
whole southern sky using ASTRO-F and AAOmega in
375 nights!
