Abstract
We present a Herschel/SPIRE survey of three protoclusters at z = 2 − 3 (2QZCluster, HS1700, SSA22). Based on the SPIRE colours (S_(350)/S_(250) and S_(500)/S_(350)) of 250 μm sources, we selected high redshift dusty star-forming galaxies potentially associated with the protoclusters. In the 2QZCluster field, we found a 4σ overdensity of six SPIRE sources around 4.5′ (∼ 2.2 Mpc) from a density peak of Hα emitters at z = 2.2. In the HS1700 field, we found a 5σ overdensity of eight SPIRE sources around 2.1′ (∼ 1.0 Mpc) from a density peak of LBGs at z = 2.3. We did not find any significant overdensities in SSA22 field, but we found three 500 μm sources are concentrated 3′ (∼1.4 Mpc) east to the LAEs overdensity. If all the SPIRE sources in these three overdensities are associated with protoclusters, the inferred star-formation rate densities are 10^3 − 10^4 times higher than the average value at the same redshifts. This suggests that dusty star-formation activity could be very strongly enhanced in z ∼ 2 − 3 protoclusters. Further observations are needed to confirm the redshifts of the SPIRE sources and to investigate what processes enhance the dusty star-formation activity in z ∼ 2 − 3 protoclusters.
