Abstract
We have carried out a pilot study for the Submillimetre Common‐User Bolometer Array 2 (SCUBA‐2) ‘All‐Sky’ Survey (SASSy), a wide and shallow mapping project at 850 μm, designed to find rare objects, both Galactic and extragalactic. Two distinct sets of exploratory observations were undertaken and used to test the SASSy approach and data‐reduction pipeline. The first was a 05 × 05 map around the nearby galaxy NGC 2559. The galaxy was easily detected at 156 mJy, but no other convincing sources are present in the map. Comparison with other galaxies with similar wavelength coverage indicates that NGC 2559 has relatively warm dust. The second observations cover 1 deg2 around the W5‐E H ii region. As well as diffuse structure in the map, a filtering approach was able to extract 27 compact sources with signal‐to‐noise ratio greater than 6. By matching with data at other wavelengths we can see that the SCUBA‐2 data can be used to discriminate the colder cores. Together these observations show that the SASSy project will be able to meet its original goals of detecting new bright sources which will be ideal for follow‐up observations with other facilities.

‘All‐Sky’ Survey (SASSy), a wide and shallow mapping project at 850 μm, designed to find rare objects, both Galactic and extragalactic. Two distinct sets of exploratory observations were undertaken and used to test the SASSy approach and data‐reduction pipeline. The first was a 05 × 05 map around the nearby galaxy NGC 2559. The galaxy was easily detected at 156 mJy, but no other convincing sources are present in the map. Comparison with other galaxies with similar wavelength coverage indicates that NGC 2559 has relatively warm dust. The second observations cover 1 deg2 around the W5‐E H ii region. As well as diffuse structure in the map, a filtering approach was able to extract 27 compact sources with signal‐to‐noise ratio greater than 6. By matching with data at other wavelengths we can see that the SCUBA‐2 data can be used to discriminate the colder cores. Together these observations show that the SASSy project will be able to meet its original goals of detecting new bright sources which will be ideal for follow‐up observations with other facilities.</div></front></TEI><istex><corpusName>wiley</corpusName><keywords><teeft><json:string>sassy</json:string><json:string>lter</json:string><json:string>extragalactic</json:string><json:string>submm</json:string><json:string>spitzer</json:string><json:string>arcsec</json:string><json:string>mnras</json:string><json:string>blackbody</json:string><json:string>spie</json:string><json:string>monthly notices</json:string><json:string>histogram</json:string><json:string>pilot study</json:string><json:string>dust mass</json:string><json:string>jenness</json:string><json:string>scuba</json:string><json:string>pixel</json:string><json:string>akari</json:string><json:string>galactic</json:string><json:string>qpah</json:string><json:string>chapin</json:string><json:string>draine</json:string><json:string>cold core</json:string><json:string>compact sources</json:string><json:string>dust models</json:string><json:string>submm wavelengths</json:string><json:string>background subtraction</json:string><json:string>ira</json:string><json:string>galaxy</json:string><json:string>pixel values</json:string><json:string>upper limit</json:string><json:string>point source</json:string><json:string>nearby galaxy</json:string><json:string>centre</json:string><json:string>candidate sources</json:string><json:string>source catalogue</json:string><json:string>outer regions</json:string><json:string>central portion</json:string><json:string>outer region</json:string><json:string>james clerk maxwell telescope</json:string><json:string>diffuse structure</json:string><json:string>extragalactic sources</json:string><json:string>different choices</json:string><json:string>next section</json:string><json:string>other galaxies</json:string><json:string>survey figure</json:string><json:string>noise excursions</json:string><json:string>extragalactic observations</json:string><json:string>noise level</json:string><json:string>point sources</json:string><json:string>galactic plane</json:string><json:string>spatial noise</json:string><json:string>colour scale ranges</json:string><json:string>approximate centre</json:string><json:string>optical image</json:string><json:string>pilot survey</json:string><json:string>average integration time</json:string><json:string>peak values</json:string><json:string>ancillary data</json:string><json:string>brightest source</json:string><json:string>spitzer image</json:string><json:string>large maps</json:string><json:string>cent uncorrelated uncertainty</json:string><json:string>target sensitivity</json:string><json:string>galactic cirrus</json:string><json:string>hydrogen atom</json:string><json:string>karr martin</json:string><json:string>submillimetre bolometer array</json:string><json:string>iras data</json:string><json:string>blackford hill</json:string><json:string>free parameter</json:string><json:string>qpah umin umax</json:string><json:string>starlight intensity</json:string><json:string>physical quantities</json:string><json:string>excellent agreement</json:string><json:string>blackbody spectrum</json:string><json:string>dust emissivity index</json:string><json:string>spitzer contours</json:string><json:string>cold source</json:string><json:string>national research council</json:string><json:string>propulsion laboratory</json:string><json:string>california institute</json:string><json:string>starlink user note</json:string><json:string>astrophysics group</json:string><json:string>submillimeter detectors</json:string></teeft></keywords><author><json:item><name>Todd Mackenzie</name><affiliations><json:string>Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of British Columbia, 6224 Agricultural Road, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z1, Canada</json:string><json:string>Correspondence address: E‐mail: todd@phas.ubc.ca</json:string></affiliations></json:item><json:item><name>Filiberto G.

Two distinct sets of exploratory observations were undertaken and used to test the SASSy approach and data‐reduction pipeline. The first was a 0<graphic url="bsl00064.gif" rend="bsl00064"></graphic>5 × 0<graphic url="bsl00064.gif" rend="bsl00064"></graphic>5 map around the nearby galaxy NGC 2559. The galaxy was easily detected at 156 mJy, but no other convincing sources are present in the map. Comparison with other galaxies with similar wavelength coverage indicates that NGC 2559 has relatively warm dust. The second observations cover 1 deg<hi rend="superscript">2</hi> around the W5‐E H <hi rend="smallCaps">ii</hi> region. As well as diffuse structure in the map, a filtering approach was able to extract 27 compact sources with signal‐to‐noise ratio greater than 6. By matching with data at other wavelengths we can see that the SCUBA‐2 data can be used to discriminate the colder cores. Together these observations show that the SASSy project will be able to meet its original goals of detecting new bright sources which will be ideal for follow‐up observations with other facilities.</p></abstract><textClass><keywords xml:lang="en"><term xml:id="k1">surveys</term><term xml:id="k2">submillimetre: galaxies</term><term xml:id="k3">submillimetre: stars</term></keywords><keywords rend="tocHeading1"><term>Papers</term></keywords></textClass><langUsage><language ident="en"></language></langUsage></profileDesc></teiHeader></istex:fulltextTEI><json:item><extension>txt</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>text/plain</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/document/D3AEB0B34F47F7449B9735E70BD8BD35701E7B63/fulltext/txt</uri></json:item></fulltext><metadata><istex:metadataXml wicri:clean="Wiley, elements deleted: body"><istex:xmlDeclaration>version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"</istex:xmlDeclaration><istex:document><component version="2.0" type="serialArticle" xml:lang="en"><header><publicationMeta level="product"><publisherInfo><publisherName>Blackwell Publishing Ltd</publisherName><publisherLoc>Oxford, UK</publisherLoc></publisherInfo><doi origin="wiley" registered="yes">10.1111/(ISSN)1365-2966</doi><issn type="print">0035-8711</issn><issn type="electronic">1365-2966</issn><idGroup><id type="product" value="MNR"></id><id type="publisherDivision" value="ST"></id></idGroup><titleGroup><title type="main" sort="MONTHLY NOTICES OF THE ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY">Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society</title></titleGroup></publicationMeta><publicationMeta level="part" position="08102"><doi origin="wiley">10.1111/mnr.2011.415.issue-2</doi><numberingGroup><numbering type="journalVolume" number="415">415</numbering><numbering type="journalIssue" number="2">2</numbering></numberingGroup><coverDate startDate="2011-08-01">August 2011</coverDate></publicationMeta><publicationMeta level="unit" type="article" position="77" status="forIssue"><doi origin="wiley">10.1111/j.1365-2966.2011.18840.x</doi><idGroup><id type="unit" value="MNR18840"></id></idGroup><countGroup><count type="pageTotal" number="11"></count></countGroup><titleGroup><title type="tocHeading1">Papers</title></titleGroup><copyright>© 2011 The Authors Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society © 2011 RAS</copyright><eventGroup><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:BPG_TO_WML3G version:2.5.2 mode:FullText" date="2011-07-21"></event><event type="publishedOnlineEarlyUnpaginated" date="2011-06-13"></event><event type="firstOnline" date="2011-06-13"></event><event type="publishedOnlineFinalForm" date="2011-07-21"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:WILEY_ML3G_TO_WILEY_ML3GV2 version:3.8.8" date="2014-02-03"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:WML3G_To_WML3G version:4.1.7 mode:FullText,remove_FC" date="2014-11-01"></event></eventGroup><numberingGroup><numbering type="pageFirst" number="1950">1950</numbering><numbering type="pageLast" number="1960">1960</numbering></numberingGroup><correspondenceTo>E‐mail: todd@phas.ubc.ca</correspondenceTo><linkGroup><link type="toTypesetVersion" href="file:MNR.MNR18840.pdf"></link></linkGroup></publicationMeta><contentMeta><unparsedEditorialHistory>Accepted 2011 April 3.
