Michael Rowan-Robinson (Imperial College London), Lingyu Wang, (Durham University)

TL;DR
This paper reviews the evolution of far infrared and submillimetre surveys from IRAS to Planck, highlighting a new galaxy redshift catalog integrating multi-mission data and discussing galaxy population contrasts.
Contribution
Introduces a comprehensive galaxy redshift catalog combining data from multiple infrared and submillimetre missions, enhancing cross-mission photometric consistency.
Findings
Akari fluxes align with other missions after aperture correction
Strong contrast observed between galaxy populations at 60 and 500 microns
Results from Hermes-SWIRE survey provide additional insights
Abstract
We discuss a new IRAS Faint Source Catalog galaxy redshift catalogue (RIFSCz) which incorporates data from Galex, SDSS, 2MASS, WISE, Akari and Planck. Akari fluxes are consistent with photometry from other far infrared and submillimetre missions provided an aperture correction is applied. Results from the Hermes-SWIRE survey in Lockman are also discussed briefly, and the strong contrast between the galaxy populations selected at 60 and 500 mu is summarized.
