Ho Seong Hwang, Margaret J. Geller

We use Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), AKARI, and Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) data to select local analogs of high-redshift (z~2) dust obscured galaxies (DOGs). We identify 47 local DOGs with S_{12\mu m}/S_{0.22 \mu m}>892 and S_{12\mu m}>20 mJy at 0.05View original: http://arxiv.org/abs/1303.6634
