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 present JCMT SCUBA-2 850microns submillimetre (submm) observations of 30 mid-infrared (mid-IR) luminous AGN, detected jointly by the WISE all-sky IR survey and the NVSS/FIRST radio survey. These rare sources are selected by their…

Deep SCUBA surveys have uncovered a large population of ultra-luminous galaxies at z>1. These sources are often assumed to be starburst galaxies, but there is growing evidence that a substantial fraction host an AGN (i.e., an accreting…

We explore the relationship between the hard X-ray and sub-mm populations using deep Chandra observations of a large, contiguous SCUBA survey. In agreement with other recent findings, we confirm that the direct overlap is small. Of the 17…

We present the first results of a sub-millimeter survey of distant clusters using the new Sub-mm Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. We have mapped fields in two massive, concentrated clusters, A370 at…

Deep SCUBA surveys have uncovered a large population of massive submm galaxies (SMGs) at z>~1. Although it is generally believed that these galaxies host intense star-formation activity, there is growing evidence that a substantial fraction…

We present 850-um observations with the SCUBA submillimetre (sub-mm) camera of the central galaxies in seven concentrated clusters of galaxies at redshifts between 0.19 and 0.41. We detect sub-mm emission from the central galaxies in the…

We discuss deep surveys in the submm regime using the SCUBA bolometer array on the JCMT. At 850um SCUBA has resolved the bulk of the submm background (SMBR) detected by COBE into discrete sources brighter than 0.5mJy. The on-going…

Our view of galaxy evolution has been dramatically enhanced by the recent deep field submm surveys carried out with the SCUBA camera on the JCMT. SCUBA has discovered a population of luminous infrared galaxies at redshifts ~1-4 that emit…

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 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 provide X-ray constraints and perform the first X-ray spectral analyses for bright (f_850>=5mJy; S/N>=4) SCUBA sources in an 8.4'x8.4' area of the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North survey containing the Hubble Deep Field-North. X-ray…

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…

We present the optical-to-submm spectral energy distributions for 33 radio & mid-IR identified submillimetre galaxies discovered via the SHADES 850 micron SCUBA imaging in the Subaru-XMM Deep Field (SXDF). Optical data for the sources comes…

The powerful combination of the Chandra X-ray telescope, the SCUBA submillimetre-wave camera and the gravitational lensing effect of the massive galaxy clusters A2390 and A1835 has been used to place stringent X-ray flux limits on six faint…

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…

The first generation of submillimeter(submm)-wave surveys are being carried out using the 450/850-micron SCUBA camera at the JCMT on Mauna Kea. These surveys are potentially sensitive to galaxies at very high redshift, and the galaxies that…

A large fraction of the luminous distant submm-wave galaxies recently detected using SCUBA on the JCMT appear to be associated with interacting optical counterparts. We investigate these systems using a simple hierarchical clustering model…

We present high resolution VLT spectra of 2 submm-detected galaxies. Diagnostic stellar absorption lines (Starburst99) are used to analyse their stellar population. SMM J14011+0252 (z=2.565) shows signs of starburst and SMM J02399-0136…

We analyse 850um continuum observations of eight massive X-ray detected galaxy clusters at z~0.8-1.6 taken with SCUBA-2 on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. We find an average overdensity of 850um-selected sources of a factor of 4+/-2 per…
