| contents | We investigate the constraints provided by the Euclid space observatory on the physical properties of dusty star forming galaxies (DSFGs) at z>~1.5 detected in wide area sub millimetre surveys with Herschel. We adopt a physical model for the high z progenitors of spheroidal galaxies, which form the bulk of the DSFGs at z>~1.5. We improve the model by combining the output of the equations of the model with a formalism for the spectral energy distribution(SED). After optimising the SED parameters to reproduce the measured infrared luminosity function and the number counts of DSFGs, we simulated a sample of DSFGs over 100 sq deg and then applied a 5 sigma detection limit of 37 mJy at 250 microns. We estimated the redshifts from the Euclid data and then fitted the Euclid and Herschel photometry with the code CIGALE to extract the physicsl parameters. We found that 100 % of the Herschel galaxies are detected in all 4 Euclid bands above 3 sigma. For 87% of the sources the accuracy on 1+z is better than 15%. The sample comprises mostly massive log(Mstar/Msun)~10.5-12.9, highly star forming, log(SFR/Msun/yr)~1.5-4, dusty, log(Mdust/Msun)~7.5-9.9, galaxies. The measured stellar mass have a dispersion of 0.19 dex around the true value, thus showing that Euclid will provide reliable stellar mass estimates for the majority of the bright DSFGs at z>~1.5 detected by Herschel. We also explored the effect of complementing the Euclid photometry with that from Vera C. Rubin Observatory/LSST. |
