Approximations of the Planck Function for Models and Measurements Into
the Submillimeter Range
Astronomical sources detected in
the submillimeter range are generally thought to be distant, dusty galaxies undergoing a vigorous burst of star formation.
Not exact matches
Submillimeter observations at the frequency
range covered by Band 10 have not been made in earnest due to strong atmospheric absorption.
Although the emission frequency of the more distant objects becomes lower due to the expansion of the universe, the ALMA Telescope is designed to receive millimeter waves in a frequency
range lower than
submillimeter waves observed this time, which means this identification method can be applied to objects even 10 billion light years away and will be a competent observation method in the ALMA Era when there will be a dramatic advancement in the research of distant galaxies.
Abstract: We use new large area far infrared maps
ranging from 65 - 500 microns obtained with the AKARI and the Balloon - borne Large Aperture
Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) missions to characterize the dust emission toward the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant (SNR).
Using the AKARI high resolution data we find a new «tepid» dust grain population at a temperature of ~ 35K and with an estimated mass of 0.06 sola... ▽ More We use new large area far infrared maps
