Far Infrared Luminosity Function of Local Galaxies in the AKARI Deep Field South
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.
