The ISM in distant star-forming galaxies: Turbulent pressure, fragmentation and cloud scaling relations in a dense gas disk at z=2.3

Mark Swinbank, Padelis Papadopoulos, Pierre Cox +7

We have used the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer and the Expanded Very Large Array to obtain a high resolution map of the CO(6-5) and CO(1-0) emission in the lensed, star-formi…

Far-infrared and Molecular CO Emission From the Host Galaxies of Faint Quasars at z~6

Ran Wang, Jeff Wagg, Chris L. Carilli +10

We present new millimeter and radio observations of nine z~6 quasars discovered in deep optical and near-infrared surveys. We observed the 250 GHz continuum in eight of the nine ob…

Observation of H2O in a strongly lensed Herschel-ATLAS source at z=2.3

A. Omont, R. Neri, P. Cox +54

The Herschel survey, H-ATLAS, with its large areal coverage, has recently discovered a number of bright, strongly lensed high-z submillimeter galaxies. The strong magnification mak…

Water vapor emission reveals a highly obscured, star forming nuclear region in the QSO host galaxy APM08279+5255 at z=3.9

Paul P. van der Werf, Alicia Berciano Alba, Marco Spaans +6

We present the detection of four rotational emission lines of water vapor, from energy levels Eu/k= 101 - 454 K, in the gravitationally lensed z=3.9 QSO host galaxy APM08279+5255.…

The metallicity dependence of the CO {\rightarrow} H_2 conversion factor in z>1 star forming galaxies

R. Genzel, L. J. Tacconi, F. Combes +20

We use the first systematic samples of CO millimeter emission in z>1 'main-sequence' star forming galaxies (SFGs) to study the metallicity dependence of the conversion factor αCO,…

CO (2-1) Line Emission in Redshift 6 Quasar Host Galaxies

Ran Wang, Jeff Wagg, Chris L. Carilli +12

We report new observations of CO (2-1) line emission toward five z~6 quasars using the Ka-band receiver system on the Expanded Very Large Array (EVLA). Strong detections were obtai…
