Abstract

Dust plays crucial roles in galaxy formation and evolution. In the early epoch of galaxy evolution dust is only supplied by supernovae (SNe). With the aid of a new physical model of dust production by SNe, we constructed a model of dust emission from forming galaxies. We show the evolution of the spectral energy distribution (SED). Then we adopt this model to a local starbursting dwarf galaxy SBS 0335-052. Further we discuss the SEDs of high redshift galaxies, and consider their observational feasibility.
