Descripción
For the first time, we investigate the X-ray/infrared (IR) correlation
for star-forming galaxies (SFGs) at z˜ 1, using SPIRE submm data
from the recently launched Herschel Space Observatory and deep X-ray
data from the 2-Ms Chandra Deep Field-North survey. We examine the
X-ray/IR correlation in the soft X-ray (SX; 0.5-2 keV) and hard X-ray
(HX; 2-10 keV) bands by comparing our z˜ 1 SPIRE-detected SFGs to
equivalently IR-luminous (LIR > 1010
L&sun;) samples in the local/low-redshift Universe. Our
results suggest that the X-ray/IR properties of the SPIRE SFGs are on
average similar to those of their local counterparts, as we find no
evidence for evolution in the LSX/LIR and
LHX/LIR ratios with redshift. We note, however,
that at all redshifts, both LSX/LIR and
LHX/LIR are strongly dependent on IR luminosity,
with luminous and ultraluminous IR galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs;
LIR > 1011 L&sun;) having up to an
order of magnitude lower values than normal IR galaxies (LIR
< 1011 L&sun;). We derive a
LSX-LIR relation and confirm the applicability of
an existing LHX-LIR relation for both local and
distant LIRGs and ULIRGs, consistent with a scenario where X-ray
luminosity is correlated with the star formation rate.
