Using public data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) archive, we studied dust temperatures assuming a clumpy interstellar medium (ISM) model for high-redshift galaxies, then tested the consistency of our results with those obtained using other methods. We find that a dust distribution model assuming a clumpiness of ${\\rm log}\\,\\xi_{\\rm clp}=-1.02\\pm0.41$ may accurately represent the ISM of high-redshift star-forming galaxies. By assuming a value of $\\xi_{\\rm{clp}}$, our method enables the derivation of dust temperatures and IR luminosities of high-redshift galaxies from dust continuum fluxes and emission sizes obtained from single-band ALMA observations. to demonstrate the method proposed herein, we determined the dust temperature ($T_{\\rm d}=95^{+13}_{-17}\\,\\rm{K}$) of a $z\\sim8.3$ star-forming galaxy, MACS0416-Y1. Because the method only requires a single-band dust observation to derive a dust temperature, it is more easily accessible than multi-band observations or high-redshift emission line searches and can be applied to large samples of galaxies in future studies using high resolution interferometers such as ALMA.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.01879v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2206.01879v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"estimating-dust-temperature-and-far-ir","repo_url":"https://github.com/yfudamoto/fis22sed","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
