Description

The discovery of dust-enshrouded star-forming galaxies in the early Universe has opened new questions in understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies through cosmic times. With the breakthrough in sub millimeter astronomy spearheaded by facilities like Atacama large millimeter/sub-millimeter array, a large diversity in the population of dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFG) has been revealed with some of them hosting prodigious star-formation rates (~500 Msun/yr). Such galaxies play a vital role in understanding the rapid formation and stellar mass assembly of massive galaxies in the early Universe. Characterising the gas reservoir and the interstellar medium (ISM) of these galaxies can give us key insights into their star-forming mechanisms. We present a sample of 29-lensed DSFGs at 1.8
