A sensitive search for CO J=1-0 emission in 4C 41.17: high-excitation molecular gas at z=3.8

Padeli Papadopoulos, Thomas Greve, Rob Ivison +1

We report sensitive imaging observations of the CO J=1-0 line emission in the powerful high-redshift radio galaxy 4C 41.17 (z=3.8) with the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA), conducted i…

Detection of Two Massive CO Systems in 4C 41.17 at z = 3.8

Carlos De Breuck, Dennis Downes, Roberto Neri +4

We have detected CO(4-3) in the z=3.8 radio galaxy 4C 41.17 with the IRAM Interferometer. The CO is in two massive (M_dyn ~ 6 x 10^10 M_Sun) systems separated by 1.8" (13 kpc), and…
