Spectroscopic Confirmation Of An Extreme Starburst At Redshift 4.547
Peter Capak, C. L. Carilli, N. Lee +22
We report the spectroscopic confirmation of a sub-mm galaxy (SMG) at z=4.547 with an estimated L_IR=0.5-2.0x10^13 L_sun. The spectra, mid-IR, and X-ray properties indicate the bolo…
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…
The Rest-Frame Optical Properties of SCUBA Galaxies
Ian Smail, S. C. Chapman, A. W. Blain +1
We present optical and near-IR photometry of 96 dusty, far-IR luminous galaxies. We have precise spectroscopic redshifts for all these galaxies yielding a median redshift of z=2.2.…
Centimeter searches for molecular line emission from high-redshift galaxies
C. L. Carilli, A. W. Blain
We consider the capabilities for detecting low order CO emission lines from high-z galaxies using the next generation of radio telescopes operating at 22 and 43 GHz. We employ mode…
The Discovery of ERO Counterparts to Faint Submm Galaxies
Ian Smail, R. J. Ivison, J. -P. Kneib +5
We use deep ground-based imaging in the near-IR to search for counterparts to the luminous submm sources in the catalog of Smail et al (1998). For the majority of the submm sources…
Ultraluminous infrared galaxies at high redshift: their position on the Madau plot and their fate
Neil Trentham, A. W. Blain, Jeff Goldader
A major recent development in extragalactic astronomy has been the discovery of a population of galaxies that are luminous at submillimetre wavelengths. Estimates of their spectral…
Molecular Gas in the z=2.8 Submillimeter Galaxy SMM 02399-0136
D. T. Frayer, R. J. Ivison, N. Z. Scoville +5
We report the detection of CO(3-2) emission from the submillimeter-selected hyperluminous galaxy SMM 02399-0136. This galaxy is the brightest source detected in the recent SCUBA su…
Strong gravitational lensing by spiral galaxies
Ole Moeller, A. W. Blain
We investigate gravitational lensing by a realistic model of disk galaxies. Most of the mass is contained in a large spherical isothermal dark matter halo, but the potential is mod…
