Photometric redshift accuracy in AKARI deep surveys
Im, M.; Lee, H. M.; Burgarella, D. +11 more
We investigate the photometric redshift accuracy achievable with the AKARI infrared data in deep multiband surveys, such as in the North Ecliptic Pole field. We demonstrate that the passage of redshifted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and silicate features into the mid-infrared wavelength window covered by AKARI is a valuable means to reco…
Effects of dust abundance on the far-infrared colours of blue compact dwarf galaxies
Hirashita, Hiroyuki; Ichikawa, Tomohiro T.
We investigate the far-infrared (FIR) properties of a sample of blue compact dwarf galaxies (BCDs) observed by AKARI. By utilizing the data at wavelengths of λ = 65, 90 and 140 µm, we find that the FIR colours of the BCDs are located at the natural high-temperature extension of those of the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds. This implies t…
