"A new deep SCUBA survey of gravitational lensing clusters"


ABSTRACT: "In this talk I will present the results of the Leiden-SCUBA Lens survey. In the survey twelve clusters of the galaxies (z=0.033-0.83) and one blank field were targeted with SCUBA. The total area surveyed is 75 arcmin^2, which makes this the largest lensed survey. Some of the fields have been observed to the 1sigma rms depth of 1 mJy, before correcting for the gravitational lensing. 60 sources have been detected. I discuss the techniques used for the source extraction and analysis, and the overall source properties. The identification of the underlying objects has been done using near IR VLT data and deep optical data. I discuss the highlights of individual sources."
