We present detections of emission at 250 GHz (1.2 mm) from two high-redshift QSOs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey sample using the bolometer array at the IRAM 30 m telescope. The sources are SDSSp 015048.831004126.2 at z = 3.7 and SDSSp J033829.311002156.3 at z = 5.0; the latter is the third highest redshift QSO known and the highest redshift millimeter-emitting source yet identified. We also present deep radio continuum imaging of these two sources at 1.4 GHz using the Very Large Array. The combination of centimeter and millimeter observations indicate that the 250 GHz emission is most likely thermal …
Molecular Gas In The Z = 2.565 Submillimeter Galaxy Smm J14011+0252, D T. Frayer, R J. Ivison, N Z. Scoville, A S. Evans, Min S. Yun, Ian Smail, A J. Barger, A W. Blain, J P. Kneib

We report the detection of CO (3 r 2) emission from the submillimeter-selected luminous galaxy SMM J1401110252. The optical counterpart of the submillimeter source has been identified as a merger system with spectral characteristics consistent with a starburst at z 5 2.565. The CO emission confirms the optical identification of the submillimeter source and implies a molecular gas mass of M,5#1010 h22 , after correcting 75 for a lensing amplification factor of 2.75. The large molecular gas mass and the radio emission are consistent with the starburst interpretation of the source. These results are similar to those found for SMM …
Co (J = 4 → 3) And 650 Micron Continuum Observations Of The Z = 0.93 Hyperluminous Infrared Galaxy Fsc 15307+3252, Min S. Yun, N Z. Scoville
Co (J = 4 → 3) And 650 Micron Continuum Observations Of The Z = 0.93 Hyperluminous Infrared Galaxy Fsc 15307+3252, Min S. Yun, N Z. Scoville

We report the results of our CO J = 4 → 3 line and rest-frame 650 μm continuum observations of the z = 0.93 hyperluminous infrared galaxy FSC 15307+3252 using the Owens Valley Millimeter Array. No line or continuum emission was detected, but the derived limits provide a useful constraint on the temperature, emissivity, and mass of the cold dust associated with FSC 15307+3252 and its molecular gas content. The 3 σ upper limit on the velocity-integrated CO (4-3) line flux is 1.6 Jy km s-1 (for ΔV = 300 km s-1). This corresponds to a surprisingly small total molecular …

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 Submillimeter Common-User Bolometer Array surveys of the submillimeter sky. The optical counterpart of the submillimeter source has been identified as a narrow-line active galactic nucleus/starburst galaxy at z=2.8. The CO emission is unresolved, θlesssim5'', and is coincident in redshift and position with the optical counterpart. The molecular gas mass derived from the CO observations is 8×1010 h−275 M_{{\odot}}, after correcting for a lensing amplification factor of 2.5. The large CO luminosity suggests that a significant …

Co J = 3-2 Emission In The Radio Galaxy 53w002 At Z = 2.394, N Z. Scoville, Min S. Yun, R A. Windhorst, W C. Keel, L Armus

We report a sensitive search for redshifted CO J = 3-2 emission from the weak radio galaxy 53W002 at z = 2.394. Maps at resolutions of 3'' and 235 km s-1 show a significant emission peak within 0farcs5 of the optical and radio continuum peaks. The measured narrowband flux is approximately 10 times the extrapolated centimeter-wavelength nonthermal radio continuum expected at 101.9 GHz and exhibits a spectral profile implying a 540 km s-1 width (FWHM) at a systemic redshift z = 2.394 ± 0.001 for CO (3-2). This emission has a total integrated flux of 1.51 ± 0.2 Jy km …

e report high resolution imaging of the CO (3-2) emission in the luminous infrared source FSC 10214+4724 at z = 2.2853. Maps at resolutions of 2farcs3 × 3farcs0 and 45-90 km s-1 show the CO emission peak coinciding with those of Hα and radio continuum. Two components are identified in the CO emission: an unresolved core and an extended source (~1farcs9 × 4farcs4)—elongated southeast-northwest. The implied size is 9 × 24 kpc for H0 = 75 km s-1 Mpc-1 and q0 = 0.5. The extent of the CO emission is significantly greater than that of either the optical or the …
