Submillimeter Galaxies at z~2: Evidence for Major Mergers & Constraints on Lifetimes, IMF and CO-H2 Conversion Factor
L. J. Tacconi, R. Genzel, I. Smail +17
We report sub-arcsecond resolution IRAM PdBI millimeter CO interferometry of four z~2 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs), and sensitive CO (3-2) flux limits toward three z~2 UV-/optical…
Starburst activity in the host galaxy of the z=2.58 quasar J1409+5628
A. Beelen, P. Cox, J. Pety +6
We report the detection of CO emission from the optically luminous, radio-quiet quasar J140955.5+562827, at a redshift z_CO =2.583. We also present VLA continuum mapping results an…
Molecular gas in high redshift QSOs
C. L. Carilli, F. Bertoldi, F. Walter +4
We review cm and mm observations of thermal molecular line emission from high redshift QSOs. These observations reveal the massive gas reservoirs (10^{10} to 10^{11} M_sun) require…
High-excitation CO in a quasar host galaxy at z=6.42
F. Bertoldi, P. Cox, R. Neri +8
We report the detection of high excitation CO emission from the most distant quasar currently known, SDSS J114816.64+525150.3 (hereafter J1148+5251), at a redshift z=6.419. The CO…
Imaging low order CO emission from the z=4.12 QSO PSS 2322+1944
C. Carilli, P. Cox, F. Bertoldi +2
We present observations of CO 1-0 and CO 2-1 emission from the z = 4.12 QSO PSS 2322+1944 using the Very Large Array. The CO emission is extended on a spatial scale of 2''. This ex…
The second detection of CO at redshift larger than 4
Stephane Guilloteau, Alain Omont, Richard G. McMahon +2
We report the detection with the IRAM interferometer at 3mm of J=5-4 CO line in the radio quiet quasar BRI1335-0415 at redshift of z=4.41. After BR1202-0725 at z=4.69 (Ohta etal 19…
