1D Kinematics from stars and ionized gas at from the LEGA-C spectroscopic survey of massive galaxies
Rachel Bezanson, Arjen van der Wel, Caroline Straatman +14
We present a comparison of the observed, spatially integrated stellar and ionized gas velocity dispersions of massive () galaxies…
Spatially Resolved [CII] Emission in SPT0346-52: A Hyper-Starburst Galaxy Merger at z~5.7
Katrina C. Litke, Daniel P. Marrone, Justin S. Spilker +18
SPT0346-52 is one of the most most luminous and intensely star-forming galaxies in the universe, with L_FIR > 10^13 L_sol and Sigma_SFR ~ 4200 M_sol yr^-1 kpc^-2. In this paper, we…
Dense-gas tracers and carbon isotopes in five 2.5<z<4 lensed dusty star forming galaxies from the SPT SMG sample
M. Bethermin, T. R. Greve, C. De Breuck +15
The origin of the high SFR observed in high-z dusty star-forming galaxies is still unknown. Large fractions of dense molecular gas might provide part of the explanation, but there…
Constraining the volume density of Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies through the first 3mm Number Counts from ALMA
J. A. Zavala, C. M. Casey, E. da Cunha +4
We carry out a blind search of 3mm continuum sources using the ALMA Science Archive to derive the first galaxy number counts at this wavelength. The analyzed data are drawn from ob…
Science with an ngVLA: Characterizing Feedback Through Molecular Outflows Across Cosmic Time
Justin Spilker, Kristina Nyland
Galactic winds are ubiquitously observed in galaxies both locally and in the high-redshift Universe. While these winds span many orders of magnitude in both temperature and density…
The Large Early Galaxy Astrophysics Census (LEGA-C) Data Release II: dynamical and stellar population properties of z ~< 1 galaxies in the COSMOS field
Caroline M. S. Straatman, Arjen van der Wel, Rachel Bezanson +18
We present the second data release of the Large Early Galaxy Astrophysics Census (LEGA-C), an ESO 130-night public spectroscopic survey conducted with VIMOS on the Very Large Teles…
Fast Molecular Outflow from a Dusty Star-Forming Galaxy in the Early Universe
J. S. Spilker, M. Aravena, M. Bethermin +20
Galaxies grow inefficiently, with only a few percent of the available gas converted into stars each free-fall time. Feedback processes, such as outflowing winds driven by radiation…
An Analysis of ALMA Deep Fields and the Perceived Dearth of High-z Galaxies
Caitlin M. Casey, Jacqueline Hodge, Jorge A. Zavala +5
Deep, pencil-beam surveys from ALMA at 1.1-1.3mm have uncovered an apparent absence of high-redshift dusty galaxies, with existing redshift distributions peaking around $z\sim1.5-2…
The Brightest Galaxies in the Dark Ages: Galaxies' Dust Continuum Emission During the Reionization Era
Caitlin M. Casey, Jorge A. Zavala, Justin Spilker +6
Though half of cosmic starlight is absorbed by dust and reradiated at long wavelengths (3m-3mm), constraints on the infrared through millimeter galaxy luminosity function (the `…
Molecular Gas Contents and Scaling Relations for Massive Passive Galaxies at Intermediate Redshifts from the LEGA-C Survey
Justin Spilker, Rachel Bezanson, Ivana Barisic +13
A decade of study has established that the molecular gas properties of star-forming galaxies follow coherent scaling relations out to z~3, suggesting remarkable regularity of the i…
Stellar and Molecular Gas Rotation in a Recently-Quenched Massive Galaxy at z~0.7
Qiana Hunt, Rachel Bezanson, Jenny E. Greene +7
The process by which massive galaxies transition from blue, star-forming disks into red, quiescent galaxies remains one of the most poorly-understood aspects of galaxy evolution. I…
A massive core for a cluster of galaxies at a redshift of 4.3
T. B. Miller, S. C. Chapman, M. Aravena +35
Massive galaxy clusters are now found as early as 3 billion years after the Big Bang, containing stars that formed at even earlier epochs. The high-redshift progenitors of these ga…
Stellar Populations of over one thousand Galaxies from LEGA-C: Ages and Star Formation Histories from D4000 and H
Po-Feng Wu, Arjen van der Wel, Anna Gallazzi +18
Drawing from the LEGA-C dataset, we present the spectroscopic view of the stellar population across a large volume- and mass-selected sample of galaxies at large lookback time. We…
