TL;DR
This paper presents the first measurement of the far-infrared luminosity function of local galaxies in the AKARI Deep Field South, using spectroscopic redshifts to analyze galaxy luminosities and compare with theoretical models.
Contribution
It provides the first far-infrared luminosity function for the AKARI Deep Field South based on spectroscopic redshifts, expanding understanding of local galaxy properties.
Findings
Luminosity function measured for 389 galaxies at z < 0.25.
Results agree with recent theoretical predictions.
First such measurement in this deep field.
Abstract
We present the first far-infrared luminosity function in the AKARI Deep Field South, a premier deep field of the AKARI Space Telescope, using spectroscopic redshifts obtained with AAOmega. To date, we have found spectroscopic redshifts for 389 galaxies in this field and have measured the local (z < 0.25) 90 micron luminosity function using about one-third of these redshifts. The results are in reasonable agreement with recent theoretical predictions.
