Detection of Two Massive CO Systems in 4C 41.17 at z = 3.8
Carlos De Breuck, Dennis Downes, Roberto Neri +4
We have detected CO(4-3) in the z=3.8 radio galaxy 4C 41.17 with the IRAM Interferometer. The CO is in two massive (M_dyn ~ 6 x 10^10 M_Sun) systems separated by 1.8" (13 kpc), and…
The formation of cluster elliptical galaxies as revealed by extensive star formation
J. A. Stevens, R. J. Ivison, J. S. Dunlop +6
The most massive galaxies in the present-day Universe are found to lie in the centres of rich clusters. They have old, coeval stellar populations suggesting that the bulk of their…
The spectroscopic redshifts of SCUBA galaxies: implications for spheroid formation
S. C. Chapman, A. W. Blain, R. J. Ivison +1
We present spectroscopic identifications for a sample of 55 submillimeter(submm)-selected `SCUBA' galaxies, lying at redshifts z=0.7 to 3.7, that were pinpointed in deep 1.4-GHz VL…
Extended Extragalactic Radio Emission
F. N. Owen, M. J. Ledlow, J. A. Eilek +4
Extended radio emission and its relation to parent galaxy properties is briefly reviewed. Our current understanding of the relation between absolute radio and optical luminosity, r…
Confusion noise in millimetre/submillimetre surveys
A. W. Blain, R. J. Ivison, Ian Smail +1
The flux density from undetected sources in the observing beam of a telescope produces source confusion noise in the resulting maps of the sky, and thus limits sensitivity. In a re…
