Scientific paper

It is generally accepted that SMG (Sub-Millimeter Galaxies) and BzKs (continuum color selected galaxies) have high Star Formation Rates (SFRs; e.g. 100-1000 Msun yr-1) however, it is also the case that standard methods applied to some of these galaxies yield unbelievably high SFRs. We compare the SFRs of a sample of BzKs and SMGs with a variety of broadband methods, from radio through X-rays, to assess their consistency. We also study the SFRs of a select sub-sample of SMGs with AO/IFU spectroscopy in Halpha to understand the detailed origins of high SFR in these systems.
