目标。尘埃遮蔽的恒星形成随着强度和红移的增加而增加。我们的目标是使用AKARI的深红外观测来揭示被尘埃掩盖的宇宙恒星形成历史。方法.我们使用AKARI NEP深场中的4128个红外源构建了0.15 < z < 2.2处的restframe 8 μm、12 μm和全红外(TIR)光度函数(LF)。AKARI卫星在中红外波长(2.4、3.2、4.1、7、9、11、15、18和24 μm)的连续滤光片覆盖范围使我们能够估计restframe 8 μm和12 μm的光度,而无需使用基于SED拟合的大外推,这是以前工作中最大的不确定性。结果我们发现所有8 μm(0.38 < z < 2.2)、12 μm(0.15 < z < 1.16)和TIR LF(0.2 < z < 1.6)都表现出向更高红移的连续和强烈的演化。我们对8 μm LF的直接估计是有用的,因为以前的工作通常必须使用从Spitzer 24 μm到8 μm的大的外推,其中由于PAH排放,SED建模更加困难。在z < 1.2时,我们用解析拟合积分得到的宇宙红外光度密度(Ω_(IR))与前人的工作符合得很好。我们发现ΩIR的演化为<$(1 + z)^(4.4±1.0)。当我们分开LIRGs和ULIRG对Ω_(IR)的贡献时,我们发现在更高的红移下,更多的红外光源越来越重要。我们发现,ULIRG(LIRG)的贡献增加了10(1.8)倍,从z = 0.35到z = 1.4。
Aims. Dust-obscured star-formation increases with increasing intensity and increasing redshift. We aim to reveal the cosmic starformation history obscured by dust using deep infrared observation with AKARI. Methods. We constructed restframe 8 μm, 12 μm, and total infrared (TIR) luminosity functions (LFs) at 0.15 < z < 2.2 using 4128 infrared sources in the AKARI NEP-deep field. A continuous filter coverage in the mid-IR wavelength (2.4, 3.2, 4.1, 7, 9, 11, 15, 18, and 24 μm) by the AKARI satellite allowed us to estimate restframe 8 μm and 12 μm luminosities without using a large extrapolation based on an SED fit, which was the largest uncertainty in previous work. Results. We find that all 8 μm (0.38 < z < 2.2), 12 μm (0.15 < z < 1.16), and TIR LFs (0.2 < z < 1.6) show continuous and strong evolution toward higher redshift. Our direct estimate of 8 μm LFs is useful since previous work often had to use a large extrapolation from the Spitzer 24 μm to 8 μm, where SED modeling is more difficult because of the PAH emissions. In terms of cosmic infrared luminosity density (Ω_(IR)), which was obtained by integrating analytic fits to the LFs, we find good agreement with previous work at z < 1.2. We find the ΩIR evolves as ∝(1 + z)^(4.4±1.0). When we separate contributions to Ω_(IR) by LIRGs and ULIRGs, we found more IR luminous sources are increasingly more important at higher redshift. We find that the ULIRG (LIRG) contribution increases by a factor of 10 (1.8) from z = 0.35 to z = 1.4.
