dc.descriptionThe clustering properties of SCUBA-selected galaxies are investigated within the framework of a unifying scheme relating the formation of QSOs and spheroids. The theoretical angular correlation function is derived for different bias functions, corresponding to different values of the ratio $M_{halo}/M_{sph}$ between the mass of the dark halos hosting such galaxies and the mass in stars produced at the end of the major star-formation burst. SCUBA sources are predicted to be strongly clustered, with a clustering strength increasing with mass. Comparisons with the best available measurements show better fits for $M_{halo}/M_{sph}\simeq 100$. The model can also account for the clustering of Lyman-break galaxies, seen as the optical counterpart of low- to intermediate-mass primeval spheroidal galaxies. Best agreement is once again obtained for high values of the $M_{halo}/M_{sph}$ ratio. We also discuss implications for small scale fluctuations observed at different wavelengths by forthcoming experiments such as the Planck mission aimed at mapping the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB).
