Abstract
The Herschel Lensing Survey (HLS) will conduct deep
PACS and SPIRE imaging of 40 massive clusters of galaxies.
The strong gravitational lensing power of these clusters will
enable us to penetrate through the confusion noise, which sets the
ultimate limit on our ability to probe the Universe with Herschel. Here we present an overview of our survey and a
summary of the major results from our science demonstration phase
(SDP) observations of the Bullet cluster (z=0.297). The SDP
data are rich and allow us to study not only the background
high-redshift galaxies (e.g., strongly lensed and distorted
galaxies at z=2.8 and 3.2) but also the properties of
cluster-member galaxies. Our preliminary analysis shows a great
diversity of far-infrared/submillimeter spectral energy
distributions (SEDs), indicating that we have much to learn with
Herschel about the properties of galaxy SEDs. We have also
detected the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect increment with the
SPIRE data. The success of this SDP program demonstrates the
great potential of the Herschel Lensing Survey to produce
exciting results in a variety of science areas.

1 Introduction
With the successful launch and commissioning of the ESA's Herschel Space Observatory (Pilbratt et al. 2010), we are again on the verge of making great new discoveries. Following the breakthrough submillimeter/millimeter observations with SCUBA and MAMBO (cf., Blain et al. 2002), deep MIPS 24 m observations carried out by the Spitzer Space Observatory have enabled us to trace the evolution of infrared-luminous galaxies up to 3-4 (e.g., Pérez-González et al. 2005; Le Floc'h et al. 2005). However, the validity of all these Spitzer-based results rests on the assumption that the total infrared luminosities of high-redshift infrared galaxies can be estimated accurately by sampling their rest-frame mid-infrared emission (e.g., the MIPS 24 m band samples the rest-frame 8 m emission at z=2). Indeed, some Spitzer results have already questioned this assumption, suggesting that the use of local galaxy spectral energy distribution (SED) templates may lead to overestimating the total infrared luminosities of high-redshift galaxies (e.g., Rigby et al. 2008; Papovich et al. 2007). Herschel will allow us to measure the total infrared luminosities of a large number of high-redshift galaxies directly for the first time.
With Herschel, confusion noise produced by a sea of blended faint galaxies sets the ultimate limit on how deeply we can probe the Universe. Once the source confusion sets in, it is no longer possible to improve the detection limit by integrating longer. This limitation is especially severe for SPIRE, which reaches the confusion limit quickly.
To penetrate through the confusion limit, gravitational lensing by massive galaxy clusters offers a very powerful and yet cheap solution (e.g., Blain 1997). Magnification factors of 2-4 are quite common in the cluster core regions, and when a background source is strongly lensed (i.e., multiply imaged), magnification factors can reach 10-30 or more. Note that a magnification factor of 10 corresponds to a factor of 100 saving in observing time when the sensitivity is background-limited. Therefore, a fairly short-integration image of a cluster core region would often reveal sources that are well below the detection limit of an ultra-deep blank-field image. This method was for example employed for the first SCUBA observations of the high-redshift Universe, which resulted in the identification of the substantial population of infrared-luminous galaxies at z>1 (Smail et al. 1997).
The use of gravitational lensing is especially powerful at infrared/submillimeter wavelengths. This is because cluster cores are dominated by early-type galaxies, which usually emit little at these wavelengths. Therefore infrared/submillimeter sources detected in cluster cores are often background galaxies. In other words, when observed at these wavelengths, massive cluster cores virtually act as a transparent lens. Lensing studies in the infrared/submillimeter also benefit from the steep galaxy counts at these wavelengths.
These types of lensing surveys, however, have one limitation: the small number of strongly lensed galaxies observed per cluster. Although a large number of massive clusters have been targeted by ground-based submillimeter/millimeter observations (e.g., Smail et al. 2002; Knudsen et al. 2008; Chapman et al. 2002), the number of strongly lensed (i.e., multiply imaged) galaxies discovered in these surveys remains small: for example, the z=2.5 galaxy in Abell 2218 (Kneib et al. 2004), the z=2.9 galaxy in MS0451.6-0305 (Borys et al. 2004), the z=2.8 galaxy in the Bullet cluster (Gonzalez et al. 2009; Johansson et al. 2010; Wilson et al. 2008; Rex et al. 2009), and most recently the exceptionally bright z=2.32 galaxy in MACSJ2135-0102 (Swinbank et al. 2010). Based on these observations, we empirically estimate the rate of finding these strongly lensed infrared/submillimeter galaxies to be roughly 1 in 10 with the sensitivity of ground submillimeter observations (e.g., SCUBA, LABOCA). Therefore many tens of clusters need to be observed to study a significant number of strongly lensed galaxies.
2 The Herschel Lensing Survey (HLS)
As a Herschel open-time key program, we are conducting exactly such a large lensing survey, targeting 40 massive clusters of galaxies (``The Herschel Lensing Survey (HLS)'', PI - Egami, 292.3 h). Together with the PACS and SPIRE Guaranteed-Time teams, which will observe 10 clusters (Altieri et al. 2010; Blain et al., in prep.), we will obtain deep images with PACS (Poglitsch et al. 2010) at 100 and 160 m and SPIRE (Griffin et al. 2010) at 250, 350, and 500 m for a sample of 50 massive clusters as a legacy of the Herschel mission.
Target selection - As the targets of the survey, we chose the most X-ray-luminous clusters from the ROSAT X-ray all-sky survey assuming that the most X-ray-luminous clusters are also the most massive and therefore the most effective gravitational lenses. The majority of our targets come from the sample of the Local Cluster Substructure Survey (LoCuSS) (e.g., Smith et al. 2010), which adopts the following selection criteria: (1) erg/s, (2) 0.15<z<0.3, (3) cm-2, and (4) - . In addition, some number of clusters with spectacular lensed systems were included in the sample. For the majority of our target clusters, we have well-constrained accurate mass models, which have been constructed through many years of intensive imaging/spectroscopic campaigns with HST, Keck, and VLT telescopes. Other important considerations were the availability of MIPS 24 m images and accessibility from ALMA for future follow-up observations although these conditions were not always met.
Observing parameters - Each target cluster is imaged by both PACS (100 and 160 m) and SPIRE (250, 350, and 500 m). With PACS we use the scan-map mode with the medium speed (some early data were taken with the slow speed). The scan leg lengths are 4, cross-scan step is 20 , number of scan legs is 13. Each cluster is observed twice by orthogonal scan maps (map orientation angles of 45 and 315) with 18 repetitions each. The total observing time is 4.4 h per cluster with an on-source integration time of 1.6 h (1500 s/pixel).
With SPIRE we use the Large Map mode with the nominal speed. The scan direction was set to scan angles A and B. The length and height of the map are set to 4, which in practice will produce a map of 1717. With 20 repetitions, the total observing time per cluster is 1.7 h with an on-source integration time of 0.6 h (17 s/pixel).
Coordinated programs - The Herschel Lensing Survey is directly coordinated with a few other observing programs. The most important is the Spitzer/IRAC Lensing Survey (PID 60034; ``The IRAC Lensing Survey: Achieving JWST Depth with Spitzer'', PI - Egami, 526 h), which is one of the Spitzer Warm-Mission Exploration Science programs. This program will obtain deep (5 h/band) Spitzer/IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 m images of 50 massive clusters. By design, its target list is highly overlapped with that of the HLS. Deep IRAC images will be essential for identifying optically-faint high-redshift infrared-luminous galaxies as well as for deriving accurate photometric redshifts. In addition, roughly half of the HLS clusters are imaged by HST/WFC3 through two on-going programs (GO 11592: ``Are Low-Luminosity Galaxeis Responsible for Reionization?'', PI - Kneib, 43 orbits; MCT: ``Through a Lens, Darkly - New Constraints on the Fundamental Components of the Cosmos'', PI - Postman, 524 orbits).
The Herschel Lensing Survey is also closely related to two other
Herschel open-time key programs: ``LoCuSS: A Legacy Survey of
Galaxy Clusters at z=0.2'' (Smith et al. 2010) and ``Constraining the
Cold Gas and Dust in Cluster Cooling Flows'' (Edge et al. 2010b,a). The
former will obtain wide (30 30)
and shallow PACS
100/160 m maps of 30 massive galaxy clusters at
,
many of which are also targeted by the HLS. Note that the HLS
SPIRE maps cover a significant part (the central
1717)
of the LoCuSS PACS maps, leading to a
natural collaboration between the two teams. The latter program will
study the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) in a dozen cooling-flow
clusters, and the HLS data will provide PACS/SPIRE photometry for a
much larger sample of BCGs.
3 Science demonstration target: the Bullet cluster
In the science demonstration phase (SDP), we observed the Bullet
cluster at z=0.297 (1E0657-56=RXCJ 0658.5-5556). The Bullet
cluster was targeted because (1) there is a strongly lensed bright
submillimeter/millimeter galaxy at z=2.8 (see the Introduction); (2) it has a large amount of ancillary data (see Appendix A); and (3) it
is in the continuous viewing zone of Herschel.

Raw Herschel data products were reduced with the common pipeline procedures distributed within the Herschel interactive processing environment (HIPE) (Ott 2010). Deviations from the standard routines are described below.
PACS -- The PACS observations were affected by erroneous flashes of the calibration lamp at the end of each scan repetition. These high-intensity spikes in the detector time-streams were followed by an exponential decay in the signal while the bolometers re-thermalized. While the spike and a large fraction of the decay occurred during the slew between repetitions, the bolometers were not fully stabilized until after the beginning of the next scan, resulting in a 10 % reduction of usable data.
The 1/f noise drift in the PACS bolometers was removed by a high-pass filter. Before applying the filter, bright sources (>5) were masked to prevent Fourier ringing about their positions. These sources were selected from an unmasked first-pass of the 160 m map, and the allocated mask size was proportional to their significance. High-pass filter lengths of 30 and 40 time-stream frames were used for PACS 100/160 m data respectively. These lengths were selected to minimize residual 1/f noise in the resultant maps without clipping power on the scale of the PSF. The maps incorporate all data observed, while the telescope maintained the nominal scan speed (including some turnaround data). The final PACS maps have pixel sizes of 2 and 3 (100/160 m).
SPIRE -- In addition to the nominal scan legs (speed = 30 s-1) we included all turnaround data observed while the telescope was scanning faster than 0 5 s-1, which greatly increased the coverage of the outer regions. Low-frequency drifts in the SPIRE detectors were removed by subtracting the median value of the nominal scan-speed data from each individual scan leg independently. The final SPIRE maps have pixel sizes of 6 , 9 , and 12 (250/350/500 m respectively).
The properties of the processed PACS and SPIRE maps are summarized in Table 1.

3.2 Overview of the Bullet cluster SDP data
Figure 1 shows the PACS and SPIRE images of the Bullet cluster. Also shown are the Chandra, Magellan/IMACS, Spitzer/IRAC & MIPS 24 m, LABOCA and AzTEC images of the same field (see Appendix A for references). As expected, the MIPS 24 m observation goes deep enough to detect the counterparts for most of the PACS/SPIRE sources. This means that one immediate goal of Herschel will be to determinethe far-infrared SEDs of 24 m-detected sources. Indeed, the MIPS 24 m image enables us to accurately extract fluxes from confused Herschel sources (Pérez-González et al. 2010). However, the most interesting type of Herschel sources may be those without 24 m counterparts (such a source has not yet been identified in our data).We detected two significantly lensed galaxies in the Bullet cluster field, one at z=2.79 and the other at z=3.24(Rex et al. 2010; Pérez-González et al. 2010). With magnification factors of >54 and 11.3 (Paraficz et al., in prep.) their intrinsic total infrared luminosities are < and . Figure 1 shows the locations of these two and other background galaxies studied. Note that only HLS can detect luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs; ) at z > 2-3 in both PACS and SPIRE data.
One major finding of this SDP program is the diversity of far-infrared/submillimeter SEDs seen with the z =0.3 cluster-member galaxies, z=0.35 background group galaxies, and higher-redshift field galaxies behind these two galaxy concentrations (Rex et al. 2010; Rawle et al. 2010). This is shown in Fig. 2, which compares the total infrared luminosities measured by fitting the Rieke et al. (2009) SED templates to the observed data points (Measured ) against the total infrared luminosity classes originally assigned to these SED templates (Template ). Although these two luminosities agree for many of the cluster and background group members, Template is significantly lower than Measured for most of the higher-redshift background galaxies. What this means is that the shapes of the infrared/submillimeter SEDs of these galaxies resemble those of lower-luminosity galaxies in the local Universe. This result is consistent with the earlier findings by various Spitzer observations (e.g., Rigby et al. 2008; Papovich et al. 2007). This also implies that these higher-redshift star-forming galaxies have a larger amount of colder dust compared to the local galaxies with similar infrared luminosities.
Figure 2: Comparison between the total infrared luminosities measured by fitting the Rieke et al. (2009) SED templates to the observed data points (Measured ) and the total infrared luminosity classes originally assigned to these SED templates (Template ). The open circles denote the members of the Bullet cluster and background group, while the solid circles denote the galaxies behind these two systems. Galaxies below the 1:1 correspondence (dashed line) have SEDs that resemble lower-luminosity local SED templates (i.e., with colder dust temperatures). Galaxies above the line have the opposite characteristics. The distribution of the points along the Y axis is discreet because of the finite number of templates available in the model. See Rex et al. (2010) and Rawle et al. (2010) for more detail. |

In the face of this SED difference, the recent finding is surprising that the total infrared luminosities can be estimated fairly well (at least up to ) if we use the luminosity-dependent galaxy SED templates as observed locally (Elbaz et al. 2010). We confirmed this finding with our Bullet cluster data. Despite this agreement, however, we also found that the kind of SED mismatch seen in Fig. 2 clearly exists in the data even at z<1(Rex et al. 2010). This suggests that the good match between the observed and 24 m-derived total infrared luminosities does not necessarily mean that the local SED templates provide good fits to the observed SEDs. A more detailed study of a larger sample is required to resolve this issue.
Equally interesting is the discovery of cluster/group-member galaxies that show large deviations in the opposite direction (Rawle et al. 2010). In other words, the SEDs of these galaxies resemble those of higher-lumninosity galaxies in the local Universe. These galaxies therefore are likely to have a larger amount of hotter dust and a more pronounced infrared SED peak compared to the local counterparts with similar infrared luminosities. Similar galaxies were also found in other clusters (Smith et al. 2010; Pereira et al. 2010), which possibly suggests that this type of SEDs may be specific to the cluster environment.
Finally, we also report the first detection of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect increment at 350 and 500 m using the SPIRE data (Zemcov et al. 2010). The measurements will allow us to assess the relativistic correction to the SZ effect.
4 Conclusions
The SDP observations of the Bullet cluster clearly demonstrate the great potential of the HLS in a variety of science areas. With the Herschel observations nearly done, HLS is expected to make a rapid progress in the near future. One immediate interest is whether it can find strongly lensed sources that are bright enough to perform spectroscopy with Herschel. Ultimately we will construct a definitive sample of 50 lensing clusters with a variety of multi-wavelength data and accurate mass models. This data set can be further exploited by future facilities such as ALMA, JWST, SPICA, and ground 30-m class telescopes.

(2010) and Rawle et al. (2010) for more detail. |
