Query: The clustering of merging star-forming haloes: dust emission as high
  frequency arcminute CMB foreground   Future observations of CMB anisotropies will be able to probe high multipole
regions of the angular power spectrum, corresponding to a resolution of a few
arcminutes. Dust emission from merging haloes is one of the foregrounds that
will affect such very small scales. We estimate the contribution to CMB angular
fluctuations from objects that are bright in the sub-millimeter band due to
intense star formation bursts following merging episodes. We base our approach
on the Lacey-Cole merger model and on the Kennicutt relation which connects the
star formation rate in galaxies with their infrared luminosity. We set the free
parameters of the model in order to not exceed the SCUBA source counts, the
Madau plot of star formation rate in the universe and COBE/FIRAS data on the
intensity of the sub-millimeter cosmic background radiation. We show that the
angular power spectrum arising from the distribution of such star-forming
haloes will be one of the most significant foregrounds in the high frequency
channels of future CMB experiments, such as PLANCK, ACT and SPT. The
correlation term, due to the clustering of multiple haloes at redshift z~2-6,
is dominant in the broad range of angular scales 200<l<3000. Poisson
fluctuations due to bright sub-millimeter sources are more important at higher
l, but since they are generated from the bright sources, such contribution
could be strongly reduced if bright sources are excised from the sky maps. The
contribution of the correlation term to the angular power spectrum depends
strongly on the redshift evolution of the escape fraction of UV photons and the
resulting temperature of the dust. The measurement of this signal will
therefore give important information about galaxies in the early stage of their
evolution.
