EFOSC2 Spectroscopy of SWIRE-CDFS Galaxies

Abstract

We present the optical spectra of a sample of 34 SWIRE-CDFS sources observed with EFOSC2 on the ESO 3.6m Telescope. We have used the spectra and spectroscopic redshifts to validate our photometric redshift codes and SED template fitting methods. 12 of our sources are Infrared Luminous Galaxies. Of these, five belong to the class of ULIRGs and one to the class of HLIRGs with evidence of both an AGN and starburst component contributing to their extreme infrared luminosity for 3, starburst contributing for 1 and AGN contributing for 2 of them.
