We present a CO(1-0) survey for cold molecular gas in a representative sample of 13 high-z radio galaxies (HzRGs) at 1.4<z<2.8, using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We detect CO(1-0) emission associated with five sources: MRC…
We present the sub-millimeter spectra from 450 GHz to 1550 GHz of eleven nearby active galaxies observed with the SPIRE Fourier Transform Spectrometer (SPIRE/FTS) onboard Herschel. We detect CO transitions from J_up = 4 to 12, as well as…
The rotational transitions of carbon monoxide (CO) are the primary means of investigating the density and velocity structure of the molecular interstellar medium. Here we study the lowest four rotational transitions of CO towards…
We present the properties of the 12CO(1-0) and (3-2) line emission from the nuclei of 60 IR luminous SLUGS galaxies. This subsample is flux limited at S60 > 5.24 Jy with FIR luminosities mostly at LFIR > 10^10 Lo. The emission line…
Observations of molecular gas in high-z star-forming galaxies typically rely on emission from CO lines arising from states with rotational quantum numbers J > 1. Converting these observations to an estimate of the CO J=1-0 intensity, and…
We report the detection of the CO J=1-0 emission line in three near-infrared selected star-forming galaxies at z~1.5 with the Very Large Array (VLA) and the Green Bank telescope (GBT). These observations directly trace the bulk of molecular…
We investigate how the spectral properties of atomic (HI) and molecular (H$_2$) gas, traced by CO(2-1), are related in M33 on $80$ pc scales. We find the HI and CO(2-1) velocity at peak intensity to be highly correlated, consistent with…
We present J=2-1, J=3-2, J=4-3 12CO and 492 GHz [CI] maps as well as J=2-1 and J=3-2 13CO measurements of the central regions in the nearby Sc galaxies IC 342 and Maffei 2. In both galaxies, the distribution of CO and [CI] is strongly…
We measure the CO-to-H$_2$ conversion factor ($\alpha_\mathrm{CO}$) in 37 galaxies at 2~kpc resolution, using dust surface density inferred from far-infrared emission as a tracer of the gas surface density and assuming a constant…
We report the first detection of CO(1-0) emission from a submillimeter-selected galaxy, using the Green Bank Telescope. We identify the line in the spectrum of SMM J13120+4242 as a broad emission feature at z=3.408, with Delta(V_FWHM)=1040…
The molecular gas in the interstellar medium (ISM) of star-forming galaxy populations exhibits diverse physical properties. We investigate the $^{12}$CO excitation of twelve dusty, luminous star-forming galaxies at $z \sim 2-4$ by combining…

We present a search for CO emission in a sample of ten type-2 quasar host galaxies with redshifts of z=0.1-0.4. We detect CO(J=1-0) line emission with >=5sigma in the velocity integrated intensity maps of five sources. A sixth source shows…
