Abstract (from CDS):

In the course of the follow-up multiwavelength study of a deep radio survey, we have discovered that the millijansky radio source PDF J011423 is a low-redshift (z=0.65) extremely red galaxy (ERG) with K=15.3, R-K=5.8, and J-K=3.1. Optical, infrared, and radio photometry, together with optical and near-infrared spectroscopy, reveal a heavily obscured galaxy (AV=5-6, from the observed Balmer decrement) undergoing vigorous star formation and presenting an active galactic nucleus. PDF J011423 is a representative member of the dusty ERG population, providing a local counterpart for studying more distant ERGs.
