- Abstract
- Future extragalactic submillimetre and millimetre surveys have the
potential to provide a sensitive census of the level of obscured star
formation in galaxies at all redshifts. While in general there is good
agreement between the source counts from existing Submillimetre Common User
Bolometer Array (SCUBA; 850-?m) and Max Planck Millimetre Bolometer Array
(MAMBO; 1.25-mm) surveys of different depths and areas, it remains
difficult to determine the redshift distribution and bolometric
luminosities of the submillimetre and millimetre galaxy population. This is
principally due to the ambiguity in identifying an individual submillimetre
source with its optical, IR or radio counterpart which, in turn, prevents a
confident measurement of the spectroscopic redshift. Additionally, the lack
of data measuring the rest-frame FIR spectral peak of the submillimetre
galaxies gives rise to poor constraints on their rest-frame FIR
luminosities and star formation rates. In this paper we describe Monte
Carlo simulations of ground-based, balloon-borne and satellite
submillimetre surveys that demonstrate how the rest-frame FIR-submillimetre
spectral energy distributions (250-850 ?m) can be used to derive
photometric redshifts with an rms accuracy of +/-0.4 over the range 0 < z <
6. This opportunity to break the redshift deadlock will provide an estimate
of the global star formation history for luminous optically (literal)
