CCAT-prime Collaboration: Science Goals and Forecasts with Prime-Cam on the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope
Prime collaboration, M. Aravena, J. E. Austermann +84
We present a detailed overview of the science goals and predictions for the Prime-Cam direct detection camera/spectrometer being constructed by the CCAT-prime collaboration for ded…
Mid-IR FORCAST/SOFIA Observations of M82
T. Nikola, T. L. Herter, W. D. Vacca +9
We present 75"x75" size maps of M82 at 6.4 micron, 6.6 micron, 7.7 micron, 31.5 micron, and 37.1 micron with a resolution of ~4" that we have obtained with the mid-IR camera FORCAS…
First detections of the [NII] 122 μm line at high redshift: Demonstrating the utility of the line for studying galaxies in the early universe
Carl Ferkinhoff, Drew Brisbin, Thomas Nikola +7
We report the first detections of the [NII] 122 μm line from a high redshift galaxy. The line was strongly (> 6σ) detected from SMMJ02399-0136, and H1413+117 (the Cloverleaf QSO) u…
Mid-J CO Emission From NGC 891: Microturbulent Molecular Shocks in Normal Star Forming Galaxies
T. Nikola, G. J. Stacey, D. Brisbin +4
We have detected the CO(6-5), CO(7-6), and [CI] 370 micron lines from the nuclear region of NGC 891 with our submillimeter grating spectrometer ZEUS on the CSO. These lines provide…
A 158 Micron [CII] Line Survey of Galaxies at z ~ 1 to 2: An Indicator of Star Formation in the Early Universe
G. J. Stacey, S. Hailey-Dunsheath, C. Ferkinhoff +5
We have detected the 158 μm [CII] line from 12 galaxies at z~1-2. This is the first survey of this important starformation tracer at redshifts covering the epoch of maximum star-fo…
First Detection of the [OIII] 88 micron Line at High Redshifts: Characterizing the Starburst and Narrow Line Regions in Extreme Luminosity Systems
C. Ferkinhoff, S. Hailey-Dunsheath, T. Nikola +4
We have made the first detections of the 88 micron [OIII] line from galaxies in the early Universe, detecting the line from the lensed AGN/starburst composite systems APM 08279+525…
Detection of the 158 micron [CII] Transition at z=1.3: Evidence for a Galaxy-Wide Starburst
S. Hailey-Dunsheath, T. Nikola, G. J. Stacey +5
We report the detection of 158 micron [CII] fine-structure line emission from MIPS J142824.0+352619, a hyperluminous (L_IR ~ 10^13 L_sun) starburst galaxy at z=1.3. The line is bri…
