Evolution of cosmic star formation in the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey

This dataset consists of tabulated data from the figures included in the referenced publication. The following datasets are included:

Stacked SFR obscuration (IRX=IR/UV) of UVJ-selected star-forming galaxies:

• Weighted mean IRX as a function of Muv & stellar mass (Figure 12):  MUV_irx1.dat
• Weighted mean IRX as a function of beta, over all masses and redshifts:  beta_irx.dat
• Weighted mean IRX as a function of beta, binned by stellar mass (Figure 13):  beta_irx_mstar.dat
• Weighted mean IRX as a function of beta, binned by redshift (Figure 14):   beta_irx_z.dat

Cosmic SFR density as a function of redshift for massive galaxies log(Ms/Msol)>10 (Figure 15):

• All mass-selected galaxies:  sfrd_massive.dat
• UV-luminous galaxies Muv<M*; log(Ms/Msol)>10:  sfrd_hiLUV.dat
• IR-luminous galaxies detected at 450µm:  sfrd_IRdet.dat

Cosmic SFR density as a function of redshift corrected to all stellar masses (Figure 16):

• All mass-selected galaxies:  sfrd_uvlfcorr.dat
• UV-luminous galaxies Muv<M*; log(Ms/Msol)>10:  sfrd_hiLUV_uvlfcorr.dat

Full details of the binning and stacking methodology are explained in the paper.
