Description
We present the first study of the far-infrared (FIR) properties of
high-redshift, radio-selected ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs)
using deep observations obtained with the Spectral and Photometric
Imaging Receiver (SPIRE) from the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic
Survey (HerMES). These galaxies span a large range of 850-um fluxes from
submillimetre-luminous ~10mJy sources (SCUBA galaxies) to ~1.5mJy from
stacked SCUBA non-detections, thus likely representing a complete
distribution of ULIRG spectral energy distributions (SEDs). From Keck
spectroscopic surveys in the Lockman-North field we identified a sample
of 31 submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) and 37 submillimetre-faint,
optically faint radio galaxies (OFRGs), all with radio-inferred IR
luminosities >1012^L&sun;. These galaxies were
cross-identified with SPIRE 250-, 350- and 500-um catalogues based on
fluxes extracted at 24-um positions in the SWIRE survey, yielding a
sample of more than half of the galaxies well detected in at least two
of the SPIRE bandpasses.
