Abstract

We present spatially-resolved morphological properties of [CII] 158 m, [OIII] 88 m, dust, and rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) continuum emission for A1689-zD1, a strongly lensed, sub-L* galaxy at , by utilizing deep Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations. While the [OIII] line and UV continuum are compact, the [CII] line is extended up to a radius of kpc. Using multi-band rest-frame far-infrared (FIR) continuum data ranging from 52-400 m, we find an average dust temperature and emissivity index of K and , respectively, across the galaxy. We find slight differences in the dust continuum profiles at different wavelengths, which may indicate that the dust temperature decreases with distance. We map the star-formation rate (SFR) via IR and UV luminosities and determine a total SFR of with an obscured fraction of . While the [OIII] line is a good tracer of the SFR, the [CII] line shows deviation from the local -SFR relations in the outskirts of the galaxy. Finally, we observe a clear difference in the line profile between [CII] and [OIII], with significant residuals () in the [OIII] line spectrum after subtracting a single Gaussian model. This suggests a possible origin of the extended [CII] structure from the cooling of hot ionized outflows. The extended [CII] and high-velocity [OIII] emission may both contribute in part to the high / ratios recently reported in galaxies.
