We present a search for 183 GHz H_2O(3_13-2_20) emission in the infrared-luminous quasar MG 0751+2716 with the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA). At z=3.200+/-0.001, this water emission feature is redshifted to 43.6 GHz. As opposed to the faint…

We report on the redshift measurement and CO line excitation of HERMES J105751.1+573027 (HLSW-01), a strongly lensed submillimeter galaxy discovered in Herschel/SPIRE observations as part of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey…

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…

Using the 100-m Green Bank Telescope, we have conducted a cm-wavelength search for CO J=1-0 line emission towards the high-redshift, far-infrared luminous object, HDF850.1 over the redshift interval 3.3<z<5.4. Despite the wealth of existing…

We report new IRAM/PdBI, JCMT/SCUBA-2, and VLA observations of the ultraluminous quasar SDSSJ010013.02+280225.8 (hereafter, J0100+2802) at z=6.3, which hosts the most massive supermassive black hole (SMBH) of 1.24x10^10 Msun known at z>6.…

We present near-IR spectroscopy of a sample of luminous (Lbol >10^14 Lsun), sub-millimeter-detected, dusty (M_dust~10^9 Msun), radio-quiet QSOs at z~2. We measure the redshift, width, and luminosity of the Halpha line, and the continuum…

I report a tentative ($\sim4\sigma$) emission line at $\nu=100.84\,$GHz from "COS-3mm-1'", a 3mm-selected galaxy reported by Williams et al. 2019 that is undetected at optical and near infrared wavelengths. The line was found in the ALMA…

We report the first detection of emission line gas within the host galaxies of high redshift QSOs. This was done using narrow-band imaging at the redshifted wavelengths of [O III] and H alpha, using the PUEO adaptive optics camera of the…

Using the IRAM interferometer we have detected J=4-3 and 5-4 CO line emission toward the radio quiet quasar PSS2322+1944. At a redshift of z_CO=4.1199 this is the fourth and strongest detection of CO at z>4. The velocity-integrated CO J=4-3…

CO J = 5 - 4 and J = 2 - 1 emission lines were detected towards the extremely red galaxy (ERG) HR10 (J164502+4626.4) at z=1.44. The CO intensities imply a molecular gas mass M(H2) of 1.6 x 10^{11} h^{-2}_50 solar masses, and, combined with…
