Arcsecond Imaging Of Co Emission In The Nucleus Of Arp 220, N Z. Scoville, Min S. Yun, P M. Bryant

We report high-resolution (1A) imaging of CO (2È1) and dust continuum emission in the ultraluminous galaxy Arp 220. The CO (1È0) line was also imaged at 2A resolution for comparison. Both data sets recover essentially all of the observed single-dish line emission. Our aperture synthesis maps reveal for the Ðrst time, multiple components in the dense gas: peaks corresponding to each of the double nuclei (separated by 0A.95 at P.A.\101¡) seen in the near infrared and radio continuum and a more extended disklike structure at P.A.\53¡, similar to the dust lane seen in optical images. Approximately two-thirds of the total …

We present the interferometric measurements of 2.6 mm CO (J 5 13 0) emission (uFWHM 1 50) and the analysis of IRAS HIRES images of two Hickson compact groups HCG 31 and HCG 92 (“Stephan’s Quintet”). The far-infrared (FIR) emission is concentrated to a single region in HCG 31 while it is clearly extended and peaks near the group center in HCG 92. CO emission is weak in HCG 31, and the brightest peak occurs in the overlap region between the galaxies A and C. CO emission is detected only in galaxy C (NGC 7319) in HCG 92, and the …
