Scientific paper

In order to study the dust properties of different galaxies in the nearby Universe, the SPIRE extragalactic group selected a volume limited (15< D <25 Mpc), complete sample of 323 galaxies spanning the whole range in morphological type (from ellipticals to late-type spirals) and luminosity (8.5 < log L_H < 12 L_H&sun;, -22 < M_B < -16) extracted from 2MASS, to be observed in guaranteed time (114 h) with Herschel. The 250-360-520 μm SPIRE data, combined with those collected at other frequencies, will be used to trace the dust properties of normal galaxies and provide a reference sample for studies at high redshift.
