Data pubblicazione: | 2020 | Rivista: | THE ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL | Numero: | 902 | Fascicolo: | 2 | Da pagina:: | 112 | Abstract: | We make use of sensitive (9.3 μJy beam<SUP>-1</SUP> rms) 1.2 mm continuum observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) Spectroscopic Survey in the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field (ASPECS) large program to probe dust-enshrouded star formation from 1362 Lyman-break galaxies spanning the redshift range z = 1.5-10 (to ˜7-28 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> yr<SUP>-1</SUP> at 4σ over the entire range). We find that the fraction of ALMA-detected galaxies in our z = 1.5-10 samples increases steeply with stellar mass, with the detection fraction rising from 0% at 10<SUP>9.0</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB> to ${85}_{-18}^{+9}$ % at >10<SUP>10</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB>. Moreover, on stacking all 1253 low-mass (<10<SUP>9.25</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB>) galaxies over the ASPECS footprint, we find a mean continuum flux of -0.1 ± 0.4 μJy beam<SUP>-1</SUP>, implying a hard upper limit on the obscured star formation rate of <0.6 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> yr<SUP>-1</SUP> (4σ) in a typical low-mass galaxy. The correlation between the infrared excess (IRX) of UV-selected galaxies (L<SUB>IR</SUB>/L<SUB>UV</SUB>) and the UV-continuum slope is also seen in our ASPECS data and shows consistency with a Calzetti-like relation at > ${10}^{9.5}\,{M}_{\odot }$ and an SMC-like relation at lower masses. Using stellar mass and β measurements for z ˜ 2 galaxies over the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey, we derive a new empirical relation between β and stellar mass and then use this correlation to show that our IRX-β and IRX-stellar mass relations are consistent with each other. We then use these constraints to express the IRX as a bivariate function of β and stellar mass. Finally, we present updated estimates of star formation rate density determinations at z > 3, leveraging present improvements in the measured IRX and recent probes of ultraluminous far-IR galaxies at z > 2. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/31006 | URL: | https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/abb830 | ISSN: | 0004-637X | DOI: | 10.3847/1538-4357/abb830 | Bibcode ADS: | 2020ApJ...902..112B | Fulltext: | open |
