Search for high-z dust emission in giant arcs
Abstract
Though scarce the giant arcs provide a unique access to a population of galaxies that are missed by the usual high redshift selections. We started a program to observe millimeter continuum in giant arcs to detect the dust emission of the amplified sources. We report on IRAM 30m observations of five arcs with sources at z = 1.6-3.4.
