z -GAL – A Comprehensive Redshift Survey of the Brightest Herschel Galaxies

We here introduce z -GAL, a Large Program using NOEMA, aimed at a comprehensive 3 and 2-mm spectroscopic redshift survey of a large sample of 137 bright ( S 500μm > 80mJy) Herschel -selected high- z dusty star forming galaxies, probing the peak of cosmic evolution. The results highlight the natur...

Description
Summary:We here introduce z -GAL, a Large Program using NOEMA, aimed at a comprehensive 3 and 2-mm spectroscopic redshift survey of a large sample of 137 bright ( S 500μm > 80mJy) Herschel -selected high- z dusty star forming galaxies, probing the peak of cosmic evolution. The results highlight the nature of the sources, including lenses and rare hyper-luminous infrared galaxies, as well as, in some cases, their multiplicity and will serve as a foundation for future detailed follow-up observations.
