Objective
This proposal is sharply focussed on a scientific project on which the member states who are involved in the Survey. The groups have been teams concerned are actively collaborating - the Deep Survey being carried organised into 7 effective teams, the members of which already collaborate out by the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) in Open Time. ISO, due for launch by ESA in September 1995, is the first space mission to survey the with each other. 4 of the groups (those from Athens, the Canaries, Granada and Santander) are from less-favoured regions of the Community. The network wavelength range 3-200 microns-m since the highly successful IRAS offers an opportunity for the young researchers of the less experienced Satellite made the first survey of the sky at these wavelengths in 1984. ISO groups to receive training within the more experienced groups. It will represents a unique opportunity to study the sky at far infrared wavelengths directly enhance collaboration between groups from different countries in this decade. The groups involved in this proposal collaborated together to propose a Deep Survey in ISO Open Time. They were awarded 215 hours of the data reduction and ground-based follow-up of the Survey. The network observing time to carry out a survey of 20 sq. deg. of sky at wavelengths will make a major contribution to the future of infrared astronomy in Europe and will help to train a new generation of young researchers in this 15 and 90 microns-m, reaching sensitivities 50 times deeper than achieved by rapidly developing field.
IRAS. This was easily the largest successful proposal for ISO Open Time. In awarding the time, the Time Assignment Committee stated that they saw this proposal as 'a major initiative for European astronomy'. The scientific goals of the project are (1 ) to detect tens of thousands of galaxies, many of which will be galaxies at high redshift undergoing major star formation events; (2) to search for protogalaxies and test theories for galaxy formation; (3) to study the evolution of active galactic nuclei and quasars at infrared wavelengths and the role of dust in them; (4) to search for low mass stars, Jupiters and brown dwarfs; (5) to find new classes of Galactic and extragalactic object.
