Poster Presentation

Submillimeter Galaxies and Their Environments

Kihun Kim and Sungeun Kim (Department of Astronomy & Space Science, Sejong University, Seoul, South Korea)

Submillimeter galaxies are the progenitors of massive
galaxy formation, and therefore their interaction with the
early intergalactic medium must be an important subject in
the cosmology and galaxy astrophysics. However, their
detailed relationship between the galaxies and surrounding
environments is still largely unkown. In this poster, we
will present the characteristics of their surrounding
environments of a large sample of mm-detected submillimeter
galaxies. We will also discuss the proposal for the future
observations of these galaxies and their environments using
the Atacama Large Millimeter Array.
