We present a detailed study of SMM 02399-0136, a hyperluminous, active galaxy selected from a sub-mm survey of the distant Universe. This galaxy is the brightest source in the fields of seven rich, lensing clusters - total area 0.01 deg^2 -…

We present extensive observations of a sample of distant, submm galaxies detected in the field of the massive cluster lens, A1835, using SCUBA. Taken in conjunction with earlier observations of other submm-selected sources (Ivison et al.…

We present new, multi-wavelength, high-resolution imaging of the luminous, submillimeter galaxy, SMM J14011+0252, an interacting starburst at z = 2.56. Our observations comprise optical imaging from the HST, sensitive radio mapping from the…

We discuss observations of the submm-selected galaxy, SMM J02399-0136, and what has been learnt about it during the year following its discovery. SMM J02399-0136 was the first distant galaxy detected in submm surveys with SCUBA. Its…

We present deep optical spectropolarimety of SMM J02399-0136 (z=2.8) done with the VLT Antu 8.2 m telescope equipped with FORS1. Moderate continuum and emission line polarization are measured (P~5%). We do not detect broad lines in…

Spectroscopic surveys of luminous submillimetre-selected sources have uncovered optically-bright galaxies at z<1 close to the positions of several submillimetre (submm) sources. Naive statistical analyses suggest that these galaxies are…

We study the predicted sub-mm emission from massive galaxies in a Lambda-CDM universe, using hydrodynamic cosmological simulations. Assuming that most of the emission from newly formed stars is absorbed and reradiated in the rest-frame…

We summarise the main results on the faint submillimeter (submm) galaxy population which have come from the SCUBA Cluster Lens Survey. We detail our current understanding of the characteristics of these submm-selected galaxies across…

We present the serendipitous discovery of an overdensity of submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) in the field of SDSSJ0909-0108, a massive z~0.7 post-starburst galaxy from the SQuIGGLE survey. ALMA observations at 870um and 2mm reveal six galaxies…

We present the source catalogue for the SCUBA Lens Survey. We summarise the results of extensive multi-wavelength observations of the 15 submillimetre-selected galaxies in the catalogue, from X-rays to radio. We discuss the main…

The intervening z=0.7443 Mg II absorption system in the spectrum of MC 1331+170 shows an unusual series of line pairs, each with velocity separations of 30 km/s. These lines could be explained as the shells of expanding superbubbles…

We present new multi-wavelength observations of the first submm-selected galaxy, SMM J02399-0136 at z=2.8. These observations include mapping of the CO J=1-0 emission using elements of the Expanded VLA, as well as high-resolution 1.4-GHz…

We report an ultra-bright lensed submillimeter galaxy (SMG) at $z=2.0439$, {\it WISE} J132934.18+224327.3, identified as a result of a full-sky cross-correlation of the {\it AllWISE} and {\it Planck} compact source catalogs aimed to search…

In this paper, we focus on the study of starburst galaxies in their final billion years. Our galaxy selection is based solely on the presence of the H${\delta}$ absorption line, which permits tracing the later evolution of starburst…

We present observations of the luminous population of high-redshift sub-mm galaxies taken at the OVRO Millimeter Array. Studies of sub-mm galaxies are vital to our understanding of the formation and early evolution of galaxies since this…

Submillimetre galaxies represent a rapid growth phase of both star formation and massive galaxies. Mapping SMGs in galaxy protoclusters provides key insights into where and how these extreme starbursts take place in connections with the…

We present physical properties [redshifts (z), star-formation rates (SFRs) and stellar masses (Mstar)] of bright (S850>4mJy) submm galaxies in the ~2deg2 COSMOS and UDS fields selected with SCUBA-2/JCMT. We complete the galaxy…

(Abridged) Star formation-driven outflows are a critical phenomenon in theoretical treatments of galaxy evolution, despite the limited ability of observations to trace them across cosmological timescales. If the strongest MgII…

We develop and apply a dual-survey extraction technique to published submm images of the Lockman Hole using the SCUBA and MAMBO bolometer arrays. Cut above 5 sigma, this catalogue of submm galaxies (SMGs) is significantly more robust than…

We report the detection of CO(3-2) emission from the submillimeter-selected hyperluminous galaxy SMM 02399-0136. This galaxy is the brightest source detected in the recent SCUBA surveys of the submillimeter sky. The optical counterpart of…
