Abstract

We investigate the emission of sub-millimetre-wave radiation from galaxies in a 165 square arcminute region surrounding the Hubble Deep Field North. The data were obtained from dedicated observing runs from our group and others using the SCUBA camera on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, and combined using techniques specifically developed for low signal-to-noise source recovery. The resulting `Super-map' is derived from about 60 shifts of JCMT time, taken in a variety of observing modes and chopping strategies, and combined here for the first time. At 850 micron we detect 19 sources at >4 sigma, including 5 not previously reported. We also list an additional 15 sources between 3.5 and 4.0 sigma (where 2 are expected by chance). The 450 micron map contains 5 sources at >4 sigma. We present a new estimate of the 850 micron and 450 micron source counts. The number of sub-mm galaxies we detect account for approximately 40% of the 850 micron sub-mm background, and we show that mild extrapolations can reproduce it entirely. A clustering analysis fails to detect any significant signal in this sample of SCUBA detected objects. A companion paper describes the multiwavelength properties of the sources.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
