High - excitation CO in a quasar host galaxy at z = 6 . 42 ⋆
We report the detection of high excitation CO emission from the most distant quasar currently known, SDSS J114816.64+525150.3 (hereafter J1148+5251), at a redshift z = 6.419. The CO (J =6→5) and (J =7→6) lines were detected using the IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer, showing a width of ≈ 280 kms. An upper flux limit for the CO (J =1→0) line was obtained from observations with the Effelsberg ...
متن کاملCO excitation of normal star-forming galaxies out to z = 1.5 as regulated by the properties of their interstellar medium
We investigate the CO excitation of normal (near-IR selected BzK) star-forming (SF) disk galaxies at z = 1.5 using IRAM Plateau de Bure observations of the CO[2–1], CO[3–2], and CO[5–4] transitions for four galaxies, including VLA observations of CO[1–0] for three of them, with the aim of constraining the average state of H2 gas. By exploiting previous knowledge of the velocity range, spatial e...
متن کاملSubaru Surveys for High-z Galaxies
We present a summary of optical/NIR deep surveys for very high-z galaxies using the 8.2m Subaru Telescope operated by National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. The prime focus mosaic CCD camera, Suprime-Cam, with a very wide field of view, 34′ × 27′, allows us to carry out efficient optical deep surveys. In particular, the Subaru Deep Field project has provided us a number of Lymanα emitters ...
متن کاملThe Spatial Clustering of Distant , z ∼ 1 , Early - Type Galaxies
We examine the spatial clustering of extremely red objects (EROs) found in a relatively large survey of 700 arcmin 2 , containing 400 galaxies with R − Ks > 5 to Ks = 19.2. A comoving correlation length r0 = 12 ± 3 h −1 Mpc is derived, under the assumption that the selection function is described by a passively evolving early-type galaxy population, with an effective redshift of z ∼ 1.2. This c...
متن کاملOn the Nature of Velocity Fields in High Z Galaxies
We analyze the gas kinematics of damped Lyα systems (DLAs) hosting high z gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and those toward quasars (QSO-DLAs) focusing on three statistics: (1) ∆v90, the velocity interval encompassing 90% of the total optical depth, (2,3)W1526 andWCIV, the rest equivalent widths of the Si II 1526 and C IV 1548 transitions. The ∆v90 distributions of the GRB-DLAs and QSO-DLAs are similar,...
