Resolving the properties of massive, high-redshift starbursts

Sub-millimeter galaxies (SMGs) are a population of dusty, obscured sources that represent some of the most extreme sites of star-formation in the Universe. These galaxies have total far–infrared (FIR) luminosities of 10E12–10E13Lsol and colossal star formation rates (SFRs) of ∼100–1000 Msol/yr, with...
