7 Radio Luminosities vs. z
Majority of sources > 10^23 W/Hz, more luminous than Arp 220 Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

8 1) µJy sources are resolved median size ~ 1 arcsec or ~10 kpc, unlike local ULIRGs < 100pc.
Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

9 Median Sizes from Large median size for sources continues down to bottom of the survey. Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

10 20cm Log N –Log S Log N-log S continues flat to bottom of survey.
Huyng et al 2005 Log N-log S continues flat to bottom of survey. 6 sources/sq arcmin. EVLA: 10X deeper: natural confusion ? Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

11 Radio SF or AGN ? M84: AGN (Mechanical Energy) M82: SF Both ~ galaxy size, but different relation to optical light. Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

12 Relation of Radio and Optical Brightness distributions (GOODS-N)

13 Radio SF vs. AGN Locally, AGN/SF luminosity functions cross at 10^23 W/Hz. <10^23 SF >10^23 AGN Condon et al 2002 Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

16 ULIRGs (Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies)
L_FIR > 10^12 L_sun Local examples have radio size < 100pc (LIRGs > 10^11 L_sun) Arp220 L_20cm=2.3x10^23 W/Hz L_FIR=1.2x10^12 L_sun Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

17 Radio-FIR Relation vs. z from Stacking Spitzer MIPS data
24, 70 and 160 µm sources stacked at the radio source positions in ranges of L_20cm and z. 160/70 µm ratio and error calculated. Using redshifted templates with different dust temperatures, rest-frame: T(dust), L_FIR and q=log(L_20cm/L_FIR) are calculated. 24µ µ µ Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008

26 Conclusions/Speculations
Star-formation and AGN activity go together: composites Relation of AGN activity to evolutionary sequence still unclear but probably not related by a simple, one-time event. Too many star-forming galaxies with AGN evidence. Deeper Herschel, XMM, EVLA data should make the picture clearer. Deep EVLA imaging will probably be dominated by more extreme star-forming objects. May reach natural confusion. Higher resolution radio observations from EVLA, eMerlin and SKA may be most productive path for more understanding. Need new imaging algorithms for EVLA /eMerlin to make deep, wide-field images. Frazer Owen NRAO EVLA Vision December 17, 2008
