Submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) are among the most luminous dusty galaxies inthe Universe, but their true nature remains unclear; are SMGs the progenitorsof the massive elliptical galaxies we see in the local Universe, or are theyjust a short-lived phase among more typical star-forming galaxies? To explorethis problem further, we investigate the clustering of SMGs identified in theSCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey. We use a catalogue of submillimetre($850\mu$m) source identifications derived using a combination of radiocounterparts and colour/IR selection to analyse a sample of 914 SMGs in theUKIDSS Ultra Deep Survey (UDS), making this the largest high redshift sample ofthese galaxies to date. Using angular cross-correlation techniques, we estimatethe halo masses for this large sample of SMGs and compare them with passive andstar-forming galaxies selected in the same field. We find that SMGs, onaverage, occupy high-mass dark matter halos (M$_{\text{halo}}>10^{13}$M$_{\odot}$) at redshifts $z > 2.5$, consistent with being theprogenitors of massive quiescent galaxies in present-day galaxy clusters. Wealso find evidence of downsizing, in which SMG activity shifts to lower masshalos at lower redshifts. In terms of their clustering and halo masses, SMGsappear to be consistent with other star-forming galaxies at a given redshift.
