High spatial resolution observations of CUDSS14A: a SCUBA-selected   Ultraluminous galaxy at high redshift
  We present a high-resolution millimetre interferometric image of the brightest SCUBA-selected galaxy from the Canada-UK deep SCUBA survey (CUDSS). We make a very clear detection at 1.3 mm, but fail to resolve any structure in the source. The interferometric position is within 1.5 arcsec of the SCUBA 850 $\mu$m centroid, and also within 1.5 arcsec of a 44 $\mu$Jy radio source and a very faint, extremely red galaxy which we had previously identified as the submillimetre source. We also present new optical and infrared imaging, and infrared spectroscopy of this source. We model the overall spectral energy distribution and conclude that it lies within the redshift range 2$< z < 4.5$. The submm/FIR luminosity of CUDSS14A is very weakly dependent on redshift within the constrained range, and is roughly 4$\times10^{12}$ L$_\odot$ (for H$_0$=75 and an assumed Arp220-like spectrum), which implies a star-formation rate $\sim$1000 M$_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$. We derive an approximate gas mass of $\sim 10^{10}$ M$_\odot$ which would imply the current star-forming activity cannot be sustained for longer than about 10 million years. With the present data however we are unable to rule out a significant AGN contribution to the total luminosity.
