Spitzer selected starbursts at z~2

DOI

Wide-field Spitzer surveys allow identification of thousands of potentially high-z submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) through their bright 24um emission and their mid-IR colors. We want to determine the average properties of such z~2 Spitzer-selected SMGs by combining millimeter, radio, and infrared photometry for a representative IR-flux (lambda_rest_~8um) limited sample of SMG candidates. A complete sample of 33 sources believed to be starbursts (5.8um-peakers) was selected in the (0.5deg^2^) J1046+56 field with selection criteria F_24um>400uJy, the presence of a redshifted stellar emission peak at 5.8um, and r'Vega>23. The field, part of the SWIRE Lockman Hole field, benefits from very deep VLA/GMRT 20cm, 50cm, and 90cm radio data (all 33 sources are detected at 50cm), and deep 160um and 70um Spitzer data. The 33 sources, with photometric redshifts ~1.5-2.5, were observed at 1.2mm with IRAM-30m/MAMBO to an rms ~0.7-0.8mJy in most cases. Their millimeter, radio, 7-band Spitzer, and near-IR properties were jointly analyzed.
